Mouse chattering questions

New mouse owner here! One of my girls is making chattering noises. I googled it, and it is almost identical to this video here which is labelled as happy chattering: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOqdU-TfWz8

Now my question is how exactly can I tell the difference between happy chattering like in this video or a sick respiratory noise? What specifically can and should I be looking for with sick noises?

sorry I didn't hear any chattering in that video
I just heard what sounded like the person recording the video walking around maybe...?

I am new to mice but if your mouse looks or acts sick I would consult a vet

good luck

Both mice ended up having upper respiratory issues- they're on antibiotics now. The chattering progressed to rattling. It did sound exactly like what was in the video, though : )
