When is one to be febrile?
It depends on how you are using the term. The terms febrile means to have a fever or to be excited.

So you would have to be sick or recovering from a recent illness to have this type of seizure. If you mean age, then you'd most likely be from six months to age six, and boys are twice as likely to suffer this than girls.
