Their throats move pretty fast when they breathe, faster if they're stressed or startled - if you turned on the light, woke him up, he's not used to being handled, etc.
If he seems to otherwise be breathing normally and quietly he's probably fine. :) Make sure you keep his cage temperatures in the right range, give him places to hide, try not to pick him up too suddenly, the usual.
