When you get your tortoises microchipped, you have to send them to DEFRA to get the correct
paperwork, I think<g>. If memory serves me right.

There is a form you get, to fill out. From the DEFRA site.
Your tortoise has to be four inchs or more in length. I wouldnt at four inchs far to small as
far as I am concerned.
