@Rafiki-Loko - It went well. I really think he likes being outdoors. So, even though he gets a bit antsy during the short trip from his enclosure to the front door, he settles down quickly once he's outside.
Yes, I carried him on my hand from his enclosure to the front yard. He spent ~15 minutes outside the first time we tried it.
Thanks! I think I'll wait another week or two to allow him to get more comfortable with me before I try any "long" trips on my hand. So far I've got him to climb on my hand to eat out of a cup, but if I take him out of the cage when he's on my hand, He frantically reaches back toward the cage...lol
