Nicole Bishop specializes in breeding American guinea in Garden Prairie, Illinois, in Winnebago County near Rockford. She has devoted years to nurturing healthy bloodlines with oversight from national swine associations and regular health screenings. Her program adheres to breed standards and genetic evaluations, reflecting a careful approach to swine wellness.

Her pigs graze on rotational pastures shaded by oak trees, and each litter is introduced to gentle handling by family members from the first week of life. The farm began as a modest homestead project and has grown into a breeding operation known for producing friendly, robust animals suited to both pet homes and small-scale exhibitions. Recent feedback highlights the pigs’ calm temperament and sturdy build, traits many buyers appreciate for backyard herds. Nicole shares care resources and remains available for guidance when new owners introduce these pigs to backyard setups.
