Fennec Puberty: Biting and Destructive Digging (The October Crazies)
25th of September 2018
Fennecs get in their puberty around 4 to 6 months old. This phase is called "The October Crazies", because generally it starts in October. It's the time when young foxes mature and their (wild) personalities settle into place. In the wild, they gain fear because their parents will chase them away from their safe dens. In order to survive on their own without adult guidance, young foxes get aggressive towards their parents (or the human foxy parents). Fennecs get more independent (since they are solitary), which brings very loud vocalizations, territorial behaviour and quite aggressive conflicts. Drawing blood isn't uncommon... Once they understand that we won't chase them off, they will calm down again and develop a loving personality.
There isn't really something you can do about the biting and digging, but to wait it out. Daily foxy enrichments will provide entertainment and hopefully bring some distraction from the destructive and aggressive behaviour.
Luckily, these rebellious moments are being exchanged for loving times as well.
