How long can Leos be out of their viv and handled for?

[Perilous]

Hello

I usually handle my gecko for 30-60 mins a night while sitting on the couch and watching TV. Is this too long for him to be out of his viv? I do this before I feed him (he's 7 months old).

Thanks

I let mine, the ones that are pretty calm and seem to not mind my company, stay out as long as they like with me its usually between 15mins and an hour. My guys that arent so tame or I havent had as long I limit to about 5-10mins of handling. If your gecko doesnt seem bothered or stressed by being out, ie running away or screaming at you, and you arent in a cold and drafty room I would say youre fine.
