I don't really agree with that - are those photos from the same person? in the garden type thing that looks ok, but I wouldn't have so many pigs all together like that, if one got ill you'd never know. and I don't like seeing them all crammed together in an inside area
 
hope those are all sows/neutered boars as well....
 
Well what a bizarre set up. I think that it is two different places though.

Obviously the first few pics are just a bit daft … …each to his own I suppose…and provided that the garden is suitably fenced to keep out predators there probably isn’t a problem. Possibly they are all chased into an indoor area, stable perhaps, for night time.
BUT whilst the first few pics look like someone’s private garden, one of the lower pics looks like a commercial breeding farm of some sort. I’m not convinced that they are the same pigs either; proportionally too many Goldens! Presumably they do actually get some food and water?
I wonder if that pic is in UK? There is a comment on one of the links that it is 'Jimmy's farm - it looks more like a private garden and I'd be surprised if the breeze block pens were there.
 
I agree these seem to be random picture compilations I beleive the little chalet type houses are from Jimmy's but some of the others look to be from breeding farms.
 
Who in the right mind would have 100 guinea pigs! :(|)

It does look like random photos to me too!
 
I've been to Jimmy's Farm and his Guinea Pig Village is a fenced area and all of the houses are mock-Tudor style (like one of those in the pic) and there's a 'pub', various village shops, and a church :-)

The pigs there seemed healthy enough from what I saw, but I think they live out all year round. They're supposed to all be sows but they did have babies for sale earlier in the year.

I agree the last pics in particular look very commercial...

Wow - that's a lot of piggies! You'd be there all day trying to give them all a cuddle. :))

Imagine how noisy it would be there at dinner-time!
 
I have to say that I wasn't very comfortable with the accommodation in some of those pictures! :(
 
can you imagine sitting down in there with some fresh greens...lol you would get mobbed at feeding time x
