Aloha from Kauai,
I have been researching a pet for my family, 10yr & 8yr girls and 4yr and 4months boys. Its mainly for the 8yr but Ive had many types of pet when i was a child and never a tortoise, so it could be for me too. Living in Hawaii and a smaller island to boot, Ive had no luck in finding any. I think we want a Red Foot or Sri Lankan Star Tortoise. Also considered breeding them as well. So my questions are: Is this a good choice for the fam?
Do you know any local breeders? Can they be breed?

Mahalo
