    Default le or female? (Thumb shot)

    Trying ti figure out if my albino is male of female still. A lot of ppl guess female by its Cherps. But an expert said female can Cherp. ( A lot different then a males croak....( ? ) This pic is of my frogs thumb. If you look close enough you will see a Brown/black pad on his thumb. He has one on eack left and right front feet...

    That really looks like a nuptail pad. I used to find my frog genders without fail by the shape of the nose. Looking at the side profile, males noses look like a cliff, it would have an almost 90 degree drop. Not sure if it works every time. Time is always the best way to tell.

    Dark spot on each thumb means male. Females can churp and cheep and make a clicking/popping noise. Males can probably do all of these but males call females do not. The call or croak of a male is unmistakable and very loud.

    That's what I look for also. Isn't 100% true all the time, but it works very good for most of the time till they are mature.

    Well, if we were to go by the face, it would be female. Has the triangler face. But those pads do look nuptial
