We went to a garden centre last week. It was one of those ones which have a pets section. My son bought himself a tortoise. It's a type known as a Herman. He's shaped a bit like a german helmet so I called him Herman the German.
He's quite large, any over 10cm have to be microchipped so he already had one fitted when we got him. We've built a pen for him. If you put him down he'll will run off quite quickly, surprising for a tortoise.
They don't hibernate til they're about 4 or 5 years old so we're going to keep him inside at the moment. He seems to be doing ok, demolishing the plants in the garden whenever he's out.
