Tortoise 'whistling' whilst breathing

[Augustus1508]

So my 1 year old Greek tortoise had started to 'whistle' when breathing, this morning I didnt hear anything like it but noticed it just now as I got him out for a little run about. Ive been looking for other signs such as runny eyes, runny nose, lethargy, and loss of appetite. Ive checked him over he has no other signs/symptoms of a respiratory infection.

Hes currently trying to climb ontop of his house right now. His substrate is coco coir however does dry out quite quickly but I try and moisten it as often as I can.

I just really need some advice as I'm worried and because it's a Sunday barely anywheres open.

Did you only hear it when you picked him up?

It was yeah! I got him out again after about an hour and it reduced a lot but only when be was picked up

It's most likely just him expressing his air from being picked up. Nothing to worry about

Hello!
I hope there's nothing wrong with your tortoise! But I still would suggest to continue watching him.
My RF makes sounds when he is excited. But my Greek did it when she was sick.....

Thank you!

Ive been double keeping an eye on him and have checked nose and eyes for discharge but all seems fine and hes still wrecking his house also ate a lot too but will keep an eye on him. It seems to have reduced massively so unsure if he just ate way too much at once

Update: turns out its just the noise he makes when griding his beak hes still trying to dive off of anything and everything and eating like its the first time hes seen food
