    Default I'm starting to think I have a male?

    I thought I bought a male.....
    Then I discovered it was probably a female...
    Now that it's older I'm thinking it's a male again...
    I'm soo confused..... I know about the beard but mine just has little black dots under it's throat... and he's very tiny still....
    Now I know there's a way to justify this whole male female situation by the toes.... but I'm not sure how that works
    can some one please help me?1?!?!? It's driving me NUTS!
    I have a picture of my pac man below... I'm not sure exactly what Kind I have I just know it's not a albino or a fantasy
    Help me out?

    Looks like you have yourself a Cranwelli. If its a male of mature age there will be a dark spot that's almost black on the outside of the frogs thumb. They only have the really dark baggy throat after calling.

    See the dark blotches? Those are Nuptual Pads, only males have them. They appear at around 7 - 8 months of age or about 3 inches in size.
    The dark throats, in my opinion is not accurate. I have photos of males & females throats and I find the females throat markings to be darker & more well defined than the males. I will post pics if you'd like.

    I agree absolutely. The dark markings under the feet are males.

    I'm not sure how old my frog is but he/she isn't 8 months cause he/she is only 2 inches in size
    Thanks guys! You really helped me :]
