Here are two good websites that will give you information on keeping dairy goats:

Get some experience raising goats or working with goats first.

I would read the two sites mentioned already and then start out with 2 wethers—neutered male goats. They are fairly easy to keep and will give you some goat experience without spending a lot of money on does. Wethers will let you know if you even like goats. Other than that–go to one of the dairy goat associations like ADGA or AGS and find a reputable breeder to buy good, disease-free stock from. Also do some research on diseases like CAE and CL. This will save you heartaches and money in the future.
