    Default Sexing age of Amazon Milk Frogs? (pics included)

    I recently bought 2 Amazon Milks Frogs from a store, they were the final 2 of a batch that arrived in the store about 4 or 5 months back.

    I was wondering of the age they need to be to use their size as a method of sexing, I have included a pic below and going on the size's they appear to be male and female, unless the little 1 just isnt growing as fast as the other!

    Anyone have any ideas? thanks in advance!

    the bigger one is the female i recon, unless they are of a different age, if they are in fact siblings the growth rate would show that the bigger is female she is twice the size of the other but untill there fully grown not the most reliable method
