Nature lover, if you have a extra plastic container that you can cut a hole in, lay your mesh cloth over the top then snap on the lid.
The glass gets pretty warm and IMHO the opening is not large enough for circulation. Keep fresh leaves in the container at all times. I use wet floral foam covered with glad wrap to stick the ends into. Check it in morning and afternoon. When it get big enough you will see it climb up to the top and form a "J" (see pic). They will stay that way for about a day then shed their skin one last time.
