Ummm, probably only like 15 minutes :) They don't need warmth urgently though so I guess you could keep them out for longer. And no, mine is too little to let it slither outside/in the lounge.

I started mine off byhaving it out for about ten minutes but now he seems quite happy to spend an hour out and even then is quite happy to clamber out when I try and put him back.

Not including Goonies escaping adventure (which wasnt planned!), the longest i've had one of mine out was about 3 hours.

Harrison the python and Dinger came to my work at nursery to show off and get fondled by the kids
They were super well behaved and had the kids drew lots of pictures of them lol

I haven't a clue what the longest is. It depends on the snake too. Falcor tends to stay out the longest as he's the only snake I have that actively shows he doesn't want to go back in his viv bless him.

Red's been out for over an hour before. About 20 mins in garden, although on that warm spell we had not long ago she was very content just exploring for longer.

She usually doesn't want to go back in and will immediately turn and try and get out again.

She's very very curious and is more than happy to be out of her viv unless she's just ate, in which case she just flops into one of her hides for a day or so .... head still poking out and watching everything though lol.

fluffy loves coming out, the longest he has stayed out is about 1hr, I can't wait until he's a bit bigger so that he can come in the garden with me :)

Only had Candy for a couple of weeks now and handle her for about 15mins a time. She's a big girl, about 3ft. When you all have yours in the garden are you not worried about them shooting off?

How do you make sure they dont? lol

Haven't tried it myself but I say keep them in an open space and stay a couple of inches in front of them at all times, but living room floor is a better bet I think.
