How many minis in this space?

We have 2500 square feet fenced off with 5-foot chain link for the goats. I know this will not be enough pasture to sustain food and they will be considered dry-lotted. It is 34.5 x 63, with a smaller 17 x 16.5 area to the side.

If used exclusively for a play and exercise space (they will be in this space during the day), how many mini-nubians do you think we could keep?

I'm no good at picturing space, but when I first got 2 Nigerians, I kept them comfortably in a yard smaller than that.
