Cali king making noises

Hey, i've been noticing some sounds form my cali king for quite some time now and i was wondering if anyone else has seen or heard about this. The snake makes like a squealing sound, a high pitched consistent noise, you have to listen closely, its not that loud but is apparent. It usually makes the noise in distress, around feeding time especially, and when i have it out and it gets spooked, has anyone come across ths behavior?

Possible respitory infection

Read up on respitory infections & make sure the sounds you hear are not caused by one. They can be caused by too cold of conditions, damp conditions or caged in a drafty place or dust from pine shavings etc. I would confirm that the sounds being made aren't due to an infection. Mark I.

I'm just guessing here, but perhaps it is hissing?
