And here's brooserI think he's a male. Look at his head! He eats like one too. The males are more aggresive eaters than the females. According to my frogs But then again what do i know . lol.

To the original poster, welcome to our community. I have been to White Plains many times (worked for Black Jungle there a few times actually when I lived in MA). Your frog looks like a young-ish male, perhaps 5 or 6 months old, depending on how well he has been fed. So I would start calling him Patrick if I were you!

I was about to say that she 's a good looking male but my thought got stuck on the show.lol There was a lot of pixies there .I got mine for 20 bucks. One big(8") was going for 500 bucks. John is the man ,so that means you scored big time yeaa. Oh yea i got to go feed my frogs. lol

$500, that's a joke... Welcome to the forum ds! I can see you're very happy to have a frog again, I know I was when I picked up my pixie about a month ago after not having a frog for like 8 years. I would say $75-90 is an average price for the frog you picked up. For feeding, feed him as much as he will eat in 15 minutes 2-3 times a week with a varied diet. Night crawlers, adult crickets, dubias, superworms, hornworms, rodents rarely, some fish, etc. A 58 qt tub is decent size, but for a growing male I would pick up maybe a 20-40 gallon in the near future with a big water source. Just look for a deal on craigslist. He looks good, keep us updated!

Thanks for all the warm welcomes lol!

A male? I will have to come up with a new name....Are you guys certain, and how do you know if its a male or female? And at what age is it usually visible? And how accurate is it?

The more i see the pic the more he looks like a male. You scored big time good for you.

Can you tell me what the dead giveaways are lol? Are males more rare compared to females, and is one sex worth more then the other for some reason?
