    Default Cope's, male or female?

    I know they are Cope's since we heard the male most of the spring and summer. Now I just want to confirm sex. Since the throat has many dark freckles which seem to increase in qty does this mean it's a male?Name:  CIMG0013.jpg

    It looks like a male to me. Females have a white throat while males are black to gray. I am not sure if having multiple males is a problem, you might check out the Frog Forum gray tree frog care sheet.

    Thanks Terry, I was really wanting a female but I can't complain, the 2 are good eaters and healthy. I raised 48 tads to frogs and of course the 2 I keep are males. I may have to snag one from my neighbor though. I've also read in different places that 2 males raised together do fine. They hang out together most of the time so I'm gonna take that as buddy system.
