Dragon ate a bit of paper towel

Hey guys, so I was feeding Broly calci-worms on his tile but he was struggling to get all of them and was kinda nose-butting the tile so I laid a few on paper towel. Probably not the best idea in hindsight. Anyway, he got a bit of paper towel in his mouth and I pulled most out but I’m sure he swallowed some of it. It really was only a small amount, should I be concerned? Or just keep an eye on his pooping for the next couple days to make sure it’s still regular?

He did a poo shortly after but I assume it wouldn’t have digested already and I don’t think there was any sign of it in the poo. At least I know now to avoid feeding on the paper towel again!

If it helps I use a hot pad when feeding mine sometimes, the ones made out of cloth that you’d put a hot pot on top of so it doesn’t burn anything. Just a thought
