Sulcata coughing?

So my male sulcata Lulu (didn't know he was a male until about a month and a half ago) has been making these weird coughing noises. He doesn't make them every day or even all that much when he is coughing. It sounds almost like a cat trying to cough up a hairball. He also seems to do it around the mid afternoon.

He still eats and runs around like normal. Only diference is the weird cough. I think it happens more after he's eaten? I dunno.

I'm not sure of its a respiratory infection. There's no mucus in his nose or runny eyes. His tongue is still a nice and healthy pink.

Someone suggested that he did just discover his manhood and that he is just being vocal, but it still sound like a coughing hack.

Any ideas?
 
Hi Emily,
I am by no means an expert.
I’ve been keeping these for 6 years.
Tell us some more information about him like his age,size,enclosure,his shell and eye appearance your husbandry and how long you have had him.
Can you posts some pics of him and where he lives?
Can you get him to a vet ASAP?
There are people here with way more knowledge than us so it’s good that you are asking.
I strongly recommend trip to the vet.
I’ve seen and heard of too many people not getting it right until it’s to late.
Good luck to you and your tort.
Andy.
 
I once took my bearded dragon go the local expensive vet for a check up and it was just under $80.
Ended up that there wasn’t anything wrong with him but I thought it was money well spent.
