Default What noises do your hamsters make?

Until yesterday my hamster was silent but last night he gave me a little squeak that sounded like a squeaky rubber toy when i tried to put him back in his cage.
This morning i heard little noises coming from the hamster house that sounded like a pigeon on helium. Can't think of a better way of describing it. He was sound asleep when i checked so must have been dreaming.
Now i'm curious what kind of noises your hamsters make?

Newt (Syrian) doesn't make any - he just gives you looks They vary in how vocal they are.

Smokey makes the following
1. When he's doing his crouching tiger impression there's this low frequency pulsing noise. I'm not exactly sure if it's a vocalization or if his muscles. I think it's his muscles as he sort of pulsates when he's being cautious
2. He's rarely made like a squawking noise, usually a few times in a row separated by a second or two in between. I think he might have been yawning or stretching at the time, didn't look particulalry stressed. He's done it maybe 3 times the whole time I've had him. I think maybe it's a contented noise? Or at least I hope.
3. One time I lost control of him and he went running through my clothes, but I think he thought there would be support when there wasn't, and he made this very soft high pitched squeak/whine when he fell. . Luckily that's not a common occurence and he was unhurt.

Nugget (Robo) makes lots of bangs and grinding noises with his teeth. Not actual vocalisations. He also has "looks". He loves scratching and chewing at wood and cork.

My Syrian (Now about a year old) has squeaked only twice, I think, and I had no idea why. I know that when she is chewing on something she will stop and make little grinding noises with her teeth, going a mile a minute! Other than that she’s very quiet. She, too, has “looks,“ which amazes me because those hamster eyes are nothing but little black buttons — and yet they can be so expressive! I also feel I get a lot of signals from her ears. When she’s interested or curious or scared they perk straight up and those eyes seem as wide open as they can be! When she is happily munching on something, the ears softly pull back a bit. It certainly is never a dull moment watching her!

My Syrian is quiet, she just communicates with her eyes.
But my dwarf does chatter she and kinda click sometimes when I pick her up for playtime or when I rearrange her cage, like she's muttering to herself "why's mum moved that, I liked it here before"
She squeals one long loud if she's scared by a loud noise.
She also has nightmares on occasions where she screams repeatedly, very throaty.

Different noises I've heard coming from my Hammy Bear:

- When I first put her into her new cage we were both nervous when she was squirming and I mustve held her a bit too tight when she attempted to jump off and she made a high pitched "SQUEE~!" just one time though, that was the only time I've heard this frightened sound.

- She was being a sweet and good hammy and I couldn't help myself to give her extra treats (I usually switch her treats everyday so she'll have something different) but I gave her extra different treats that was supposed to be for the next day and I guess she couldn't help herself too but she ate ALL her treats and that night while she was sleeping I kept hearing high pitched squeeking different from the frightened sound, it sounded more longer than just a second and it happened frequently and she never wanted to come out of her hidey to eat only to drink and she was having a hard time pooping it was scaring me I had a feeling she was having a tummy ache and so I read online that bananas make hamsters poop easily so I tried that and the next day she was pooping and acting normal again and I never heard her make that sound anymore so I'm being really careful of how much treats I give her this time :P

- When she was being a sleepy puffball hammy she was sitting on top of her tree stump (she sits here as soon as she wakes up bc she stashes food inside of it) and I thought it was okay to pet her bc she wasn't in her usual sleeping place so after I pet her she made this low buzzing sound and it mustve been that annoyed sound that I started her while she was sleepy or she was being territorial bc I was close to her stash

- Random chewing/knawing/banging noises she makes throughout the night when shes eating, playing or burying herself through tunnels in her bedding.

These are all sounds I ever heard her make so far and I'm probably going to experience more later if I haven't experienced it all yet!
