I disagree with the last post about reguritated food (although I have been wrong before).

To me it looks like small pieces of what snake people call "slugs" or unfertilized embryos. It is odd that they are all shredded up. In my experience with slugs they are usually small round "egg shaped" orange colored gelatinous balls. I wouldn't worry to much about this yet. Make sure to Clean the cage thoroughly.

A litter/clutch of slugs and be caused by many things such as but not limited too-
- To cool of temps
- To young or old snake
- infertile male or female

I would also repost yours questions and pictures on the main boa forum to be a little faster response!

Good luck and keep us posted!!
