That's when the food is, so they hang around there more. The way out is a bit roundabout, so they don't make it out before they're hungry and go back to food again.

I think people and all animals tend to stay closer to foods.

Something like this tends to work better. From my last playthrough:

This is simpler than a liquid lock.

I'm experimenting with this:

Lots of space to walk at the top and quick way down. Conveyors might need a bit of tweaking.
It needs a total of 8 oxygen tiles in this configuration so it's the least possible places where they can hang out away from hydrogen.

I thought this was the standard way to ranch them:

It takes a lot of vertical space but you can chain horizontally as many as you want on the same atmo suit station. They're also all hydrogen except the bottom row. Almost fully automated except incubation, but there's an alarm in each stable that goes off when critters < 8, so I can tell dupes to grab a new one from the surplus chamber.

[Gurgel]

Really anything with just enough chlorine tiles at the bottom to feed them and the rest hydrogen works.

Well, most critters hate to cross water (duplicants too, but duplicants get Soaping Wet debuf)

As long as there are no need for them to cross water (hunger or rancher call) they try to don't cross it, so they come up for food and never leave without cause
