Can we tell yet?

Awe, okay. I was hoping for a boy, but a girl is good too

Grif, do you think I could come back with pictures in about a month and be sure?

Girls can still reach 6" and occasionally larger so you'll still have a large frog

hm... that is one of those that I'd say too young to tell with 100% certainty. however I think it is probably a male based on first pics, visually narrow head on the last one may be because it was not happy with you a lot and puffed up, mine used to do it when he was younger and then you are getting confused on sex, visual middle line is also indicator of female, but the frog is under 3", so it might be because it is too young still. coloring under arms is not indicator, males tend to have brighter color, but there are plenty of males without it and females with orange coloring. i say wait and be back in a while with more pics

Thanks, Lija

It's been about 3 weeks, so maybe we can tell now?

I'm starting to honestly think male because the head has widened significantly. But I know I'm nowhere near experienced with this, so chime in ya'll!

P.S.- SVL is now approximately 11 cm, or 4.3 in.


sorry about this being the only new pic thusfar. S/he's extra hoppy this morning and this was the only picture I could get that wasn't an olive-green blur.

I would lean toward the frog being a male

[Lija]

100% male!

Thanks, Chip & Lija.
I REALLY want it to be a boy

I'm hoping Grif will pop in for a word as well, considering the earlier pictures looked much more feminine.

based on last pic the head is 1/3 of the body right now and very wide, add to this crazy growth rate ( he got from less then 3" to over 4" in 3 weeks) and you have a male, no doubt.

Boy! Congratulations!
