Very worried about Casper.

Was cleaning out all the cages in the rattie room, and to start with, it looked like it was one of the other boys squeaking, because Casper seemed to be pinning them down (nothing bad). Kept happening though, and turned out that he was the one squeaking. The other boys kept going over to him, just to see what he was doing I think because he kept doing it. Brought him out and he won't stay still, didn't bite or anything but he's always very cuddly so something is wrong. Put him back in and have watched him, he was in the hammock, frantic cleaning his tail, and then the rest of his body as well. I can't see anything obvious on him, he just keeps squeaking at himself and can't stay still.

Any ideas. :(
 
It sounds like your little guy is in pain. I'd get him to a vet for a full check up, maybe there's something internal?
First, check all his fingers and toes, if he hurt those, they hurt a lot and they will squeak a lot for it.
 
Can't see anything obvious with his paws :( Gave him pain relief and I don't have transport until tonight at 5.40, we're taking 2 girls to be PTS sadly but will take him along for a checkup. Thanks.
