Runny poop during handling?

I'm completely new to owning mice and so far I've enjoyed owning my handsome boy Digglet. I've been taking him out of his enclosure almost everyday after he learned that my hands are safe and letting him rome around in a designated area. He looks completely normal and healthy. No matted fur, discharge from his eyes, responds to commands, and no personality changes. However, after spending a little bit of time out of his enclosure, he has runny, light colored poops. The rest of the time he has normal poops which is odd to me. He is about 4 months old and is fed a variety of foods that are safe for mice. As this is my first time owning mice, this is very concerning to me and I was wondering what your thoughts were.

Could be the stress and excitement. Just keep keeping an eye out for any other changes
