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?
Things are just like that . In the wild there's more females than males thats why the strongest male goes around and mates with as many females as possible. He has a harem!!lol Lucky guy!
Lol
Pictures I see of males, and females only show the size difference. I mean by the description in the caresheet it sounds like it could be either. It has yellow, but it doesn't seem to be very much under the chin. Am I missing something?
Male: 4.5-10 inches
Female: 3.5-5.5 inches
Enough said?
Haha no, kidding aside. While most frog species the female is bigger than the male. The African Bullfrog male grows a lot bigger than the female. They play the dominant role of protecting the tadpoles in ponds, keeping away predators with their territorial intimidation, and combat during mating against other males. While the males are ****ing **** up, the females god knows what they're doing. For this reason, males are a lot more valuable than females due to their size growth and behavior.
There's actually a great educational video on the African Bullfrog:
People say it's a male because of the broad head and pointy like projection from the start of his jaw to the snout. Also the growth pattern, or if you hear your frog croaking it's 100% male. Some people say you can tell by the pupils, the throat, and the eardrum. The pupils being more thinned out than the females, eardrum size bigger than the eye, throat I have no clue. People don't go by the coloration for the reason being females have been seen to have just as much or more coloration than the males.
I see. I was looking at that, and was wondering about the coloration. I see a lot of pictures that could look either, so I found that to be a bad way to sex. I guess I just need to see more of each sex, because they still look so similar. Obviously when they are fully grown its easy, but when still growing it seems kind of tough.
Welcome on board.
It does have a nice head but not enough to make me think the seller made in mistake in sexing it.
I personally would have to see more pics because photos 1,2,3,5 it looks female and then pic 4 it looks male.
thanks
I would like to see some more pictures with different poses. The males also have these muscle bumps behind there head ,on their neck. Some males are late bloomers showing there male features. Oh, with the video,the wrestling seen happened in my yard today as my frogs were taking some sun. lol The male wouldn't do that to a female. I'm talking about the tossing,and the pushing.
