Default A Squeeking noise

Odd title I know lol, A collegue at work was telling me last night her Dwarf Hermann Squeeks, I'd never heard of this. I thought she meant wheezing, but she insists its a squeeking noise when she holds him near her for a hug lol..

Do Tortoises squeek? Im not so sure What is it she's talking about lol

He's about a year old and was purchased from The Tortoise Centre, I also gave her a little talking too about this aswell. She feeds him/her on pellets TUT TUT...I gave her some info on Tortoise wed seeds and a few sites including this one Hope she joins!! I will ask her when I see her next. He/she is also in a viv! Another TUT TUT.... I advised her on suitable accomodation too. Seems she was ill advised by the TC. Dont worry I will see her right

They do squeek males do this when mating! Although yours is probably too young for this!
