Since we live in pretty dense forest, I'm a bit concerned about livestock grains. I can't keep cows for a lot of reasons, but we may add a few goats soon. Now, it's just poultry, which we can handle. We need every bit of cleared space for our own food and animals in the woods would get eaten in no time.
Thankfully, we have neighbors who are pretty well set up to barter with and they've made it clear they're willing to do so for meat but not milk.
I do laugh every time I read a book where they have a cow/goat/sheep that's just continually in milk, though.
