Are goats the right dairy animal for us?

I have to chuckle every time I see someone say that goats won't be happy and/or do well on pasture. That's just not the case! We just moved from 64 acres of gorgeous pastures to 5 acres of woods. My goats thrived on those pastures, and the ONLY time I supplemented with grain was when the does were on the stand being milked, or with hay when there was snow on the ground. Other than that they got no supplementation and they did absolutely great, and were much happier than they are here in the woods.
