New bin Need advice/help

Not pictured but a layer of grit (eggshells)

The problem, second time I’m checking under the 3 gallon bucket and there’s some escapees. I keep this outside so I have drainage on the bottom and keep the lid on top. How can I make them happy and or improve the situation?

I did a used rinsed coco base, just tore up the roots. Seem to love it. I've noticed allot of people say you want dryer and more moist zones but if it's too drastic they will leave they want somewhere in between
