Dairy goats can be on pasture but will need supplemental nutrition as production of large quantities of milk requires a lot of nutrients. Make sure to speak with your veterinarian about what to feed and how much is suitable for your dairy goat based on what stage they are in (pregnant, milking, dry, growing).

All other facilities for dairy goats is similar to any sheep or goat operation, however this production method will need somewhere specific to milk goats and to kid. It is important to have easy access to milking equipment and make this process comfortable for both goat and person. You will need a milking stand, this can be purchased or built. 

Milking should be done at least one or two times a day. Dairy goats can typically be milked for 280 or so days from the day of kidding.  The amount and quality of the milk is dictated heavily by the nutrition, but also by the goats genetics. Breeds will vary widely, but many of the larger breeds can produce 3 to 5 quarts of milk each day. 

Goats milk cannot be sold for human consumption in Florida without being pasteurized at a commercial facility. One who chooses to raise dairy goats typically does so for milk for their own family, and it is still best to pasteurize that product before consuming. Goat milk can also be used to produce cheeses, yogurts, soaps, and other products. Some of these processed products can be sold without a permit. Make sure to look into any rules or regulations before you choose this production type if you'd like make money.
