Fennec didn't know what Bronco had missed, but she assumed he'd gone quicker than she would have.  You couldn't just power your way through.  You have to pay attention to the ground and make sure it is stable.  Don't take too much or the top won't hold.  That was all she'd really say on that.  It was easier to talk about in terms of what she was doing with this one anyway.

That's why I'm using the rock here.  It makes a better roof, no danger.  Just means I had to go a little deeper.  Which was worth it.  If you don't have stone, just keep the top nice and thick.  Especially if anyone would be walking over.

She'd never figured she'd be giving den advice, but after making 2 now, she was starting to get a groove on it.  Besides, it was one of few tasks that didn't require eyes.  She could feel and dig just as well in the dark.

She talked the girl through a few more aspects of den-digging, then made herself scarce.  She hoped word wouldn't get back to Bronco, though it was likely stupid to think she could get away with this for long.  Eventually he was bound to come snooping.
Fenn is blind, and as she's older, will take all of her character insight from tone.  If you are ever uncomfortable with an assumption she makes, please let me know!
