Many years ago....I worked in a reptile shop here in Miami. We had gotten in a rather large import b.c.i, I would have to guess it to be over 7'. A few days after it arrived I went to check on him and change his water when I noticed a blue towel in his cage. IT was all compacted and wet......where ever he was prior to coming to us he had eaten the towel and then regurged it at the shop.....and this was a full sized towel...the kind you use to dry yourself off after a shower... He wolfed down some rodents a few days later and never had any issues after that.

Pretty wild what can find it's way down the gullet of a large snake...
