Hi guy
Today cleaning the piggies out and notice it was nail clipping time I normally clip there nails at night but decided to do it this morning anyway winter was not happy she was doing a growing kinda speaking and shown her teeth so I decided to leave her be ill do it tonight
But do you think she grumpy because she normally sleeps at this time and she not happy that am deciding to do it
 
It may be she just didn’t want to be handled and was brave enough to show her displeasure.
 
One of my boys get very grumpy when needing their nails cut.
This guide, and video from Saskia may be something you want to have a look at and try, or wrapping your girl in a towel - Guide to Cutting Guinea Pig Nails

A thin bit of pepper never goes amiss either.
