its just the normal plastic dog bowl from walmart (not sure of the material) the bowl isnt that old, i would say about 3 months..the heating source was on the other end of the cage(the enclosure is about 22 inches long)..im still confused on how this happened..i dont even think i can punch a hole through that bowl with my bare hands lol

Have you left any weight training equipment in or near the snake's cage?
But seriously, I think the bowl was somehow weakened, allowing the snake to break it more easily. Snakes are quite strong, and it looks like the damage happened from the bottom, which suggests the snake broke through upwards. I could be wrong, though.

yeah you're probably right..maybe it was just a defective bowl to begin with..still pretty impressive for a snake to do that though lol

I'm surprised you bothered to post pics of a broken bowl, but not the culprit. :sarcasm:
