Herp Habitats?

Hello all,

My daughter has two Northern GTF's in a 'Lee's Herp Habitat'.

We're going to be upgrading it as soon as we can (got some cool ideas for a set up).

Our problem is- the piece of wire in the top has come apart from the frame, which makes it hard to open and close, and poses an escape prospect for a smart frog.
I've been trying to find some online details for the company who makes them to see if we can get a replacement piece, as we'd like to keep the enclosure once the frogs are evicted as a gecko enclosure.

We don't have the tools nor the inclination to build a new piece for it. It hasn't had any weight on it (the UV light is on top of the actual coloured lid piece, so we're not sure why its done what its done) the only thing we can think of is the light heating and expanding the metal during the day, then contracting at night has warped the metal, causing it to fall out.

Anyone got any advice/contact details/ideas?
(Saying- chuck it out isn't helpful so please don't say it....and I know some of you are thinking it!! )

Snakeman I didn't know exoterra did them, or I would have.

Morelia- because the metal has warped, it won't reach into the slit its supposed to. We're going to have a play and see what we can come up with.
