Q & A / Chinchilla likes us blowing our noses?

Just curious. One of my our chinchillas that is about 16 years old and had a previous owner five or six years ago is interested in noses being blown into tissues. It is that sound that will get this chinchilla's attention and he will come to the side of his cage almost like he's begging for a treat. We can do it far away or close to him for him to watch and he always has the same reaction. He has a male companion that has been with him his whole life and does not give the same reaction. Any ideas? We were thinking that the noise is associated with him getting treats from the previous owner but we think that the other chinchilla would behave the same way. Thanks for any input! TC.
