Default Weird squeeling?

So i've had my hamster for a year now, hes settled and tame. I've recently gave him a sand bath, however today during the day i heard him squeel - it wasnt loud and didnt sound alarming. Hes done it twice since earlier and I can't think why - i wasnt near the cage and he was sleeping and the second&third time i was in the same room but wasnt near him. He isnt afraid and doesnt seem in pain - does anyone know what this can be? We have a hamster in another room to add

Its hard to explain but its more of a high pitched grunt, or sounds like their stomach is rumbling/or burping but sounds more like a grunt

I've heard some of my hams make this noise before, sometimes they'll do it when they're scared or agitated, at least from my experience. Is the hamster in the other room new?

Hi, I'm not too sure as I hadn't been near him and there's no reason why he'd be annoyed. He regularly stretches and yawns, so maybe its a happy squeel.

No, the hamster in the other room is not new. However, when he was, my hammy didn't like him.

My hamster made a funny squeal last night too, she's not in pain and seems fine, running around and eating food etc but I think it might have been because her wheel broke late last night and she was annoyed as it wasn't in there any more. I gave her a plain cardboard box to climb and play in and she seemed to stop the noises. Bought a new wheel today so we'll see what she thinks to that!!
