Weird breathing clacking sounds

Hi folks wondered if anyone could shed light on my young piggy’s breathing sounds. Got her from pets at home about 7 weeks ago and she started breathing funny about a week later. She doesn’t seem at all stressed and is eating fine / no signs of cold or discharge. It sounds like a clacking sound on both inhale and exhale. Not sure what to do as she is absolutely fine in herself!

Take her to the vet, I recently also purchased a guinea pig from there, few days in she had a crusty nose, although I could not hear issues with her breathing, upon sounding the vet informed me she had noisy airways (although her lungs were clear, which was good). It's better to be safe than sorry 😊
 
Please have her seen by a vet ASAP. Sounds like a possible respiratory infection which can cause them to go downhill very quickly.
