    I don't know, I keep ending up with males, but on this topic... Is there behavioural differences between male and female frogs other than singing?

    I prefer male African Bullfrogs - they seem bolder and obviously are a lot bigger.

    Males are typically more aggressive.
    They also usually have a much better feeding response.

    Yeah... im kind of jealous of those with males

    lol, I just don't have room for a male though I already have 4 snakes and two of them are going to get pretty big (a blood python and coastalxjungle carpet python).

    Interesting....I find with my lot, that the males seem to be more skittery and the females are more relaxed. So it would have to be the females for me. Ive noticed that the females eat more than the females too. Maybe cos the males just have other things other than food on their minds, especially this time of year.

    I have to agree with Kevin, at least as far as adults are concerned.

    In most frog and toad species the females eat a lot more than males. They often become much tamer too, due to their greed!
