Newbie - Object Export / Import

Hello,
 
Total newbie here.  I have been creating an object in our main Salesforce account not realising that there was a development account we could have for us to test our changes on.
 
I would like to therefore export the object and import it into our development account so that I am no affecting any of our live data and users experience.
 
Is this possible?
 
Thanks in advance,

Look into the "Sandbox" feature. It lets you do your development and testing without impacting the deployed app.

Thanks for the advice.  Will do.

Yes, you would package your objects, and use the AppExchange to move these to your developer org.

click Setup | App Setup | Exchange | Share Apps to create the package.

you can do this without making the package public, just upload and register the package, then you get the link to use to install these objects into your developer org.
