Blue poop?!

Hello all, I have a rather strange incident to share that happened a few days ago. I looked in my male cornsnake's bin to find relatively normal looking dedication, mixed with cyan-blue mush! It was the color of chewed spearmint gum! I have no clue whether or not it was part of his actual defecation, or if out was just some thing stuck to the newspaper. Needless to say, I took plenty of pictures. I threw the poo in the garbage after I got several shots. He seems to be doing fine, so I'm not too worried about him. Has anybody ever seen anything like this before?

I'll have to upload pics later, as I'm posting this from mobile.
 
Ok, here is one of the pictures. I've got to say, this is one of the weirdest things I've seen so far...

It has to do with the newspaper. I'll bet there is a page with blue ink. I use newspaper as well and often see colors on shed skin from the ink. I'll also bet your snake is one that likes to take a swim in the water dish and then get the newspaper wet.
 
Have to agree, could be just ink. Blue poo doesn't chime with anything, either, to my understanding it's very much about something outside. In this case the ink, probabaly.
