Do you want a tortoise that hibernates or one that stays up. I think the hermanns is a good starter but a good non hibernater is a redfoot as they have a varied diet ie fruit ,weeds and occasional cooked chicken.

cooked chicken ? I am not sure about that but if you have had no problems then it is up to you. I feed mine dead small mice as thats a bit more like the carrion they eat in the wild.
