Going outside this time of year

[xebix]

Wasn't sure where to put this thread, so I put it here...

I have a 2x2 screened enclosure I take my beardie out side in several times a week to get some sun. I live in TX and it is starting to cool off. This last week it has been in the mid 70's during the day. At what point should I stop taking him outside until it warms up again? Is it OK while it is still in the 70's? I just don't want to freak him out going from his nice warm viv to going outside in the cooler weather. At the same time, I don't want to deprive him of the outdoors any more than I have to. He loves going outside!

Put his outdoor viv in the sun and out of the wind. Put a thermometer on the basking spot. I would prob take him out down to 75-80 as long as he seems happy. Bogie's outside log has been nice and toasty on the front porch untill yesterday. It has only been in the 60s and the sun just can't warm it up. Hope we get another round of 70s. Enjoy it while you can!

I would say that down into the lower 70's would be ok as long as it isnt windy.
After all, we have them out in our houses, and it is usually 70 in my house.
