    Default Re: African bullfrog pictures, male or female?

    Looks like an adult female....lol If it is a male it is super obese. The only reason I don't say 100% female is due to the size of her front legs. she's got some big old front legs! This is not typical in females. Usually the females have skinier front limbs.

    She's good looking...well fed....but not properly fed...lol. Not knocking on ya, you were told what most people are told and or assume.

    Feed mammals sparingly (every 45-60 days if at all). They'll grow fast on mice/rats, but you will significantly shorten your frogs life. Fish are also no good. It's difficult to gaurantee that a fish is parasite and disease free (Impossible if bought from a pet store IMO). Feeder fish are nasty little SOBs. Inverts (roaches, nightcrawlers as a staple...crickets, wax worms, horn worms as a treat once a week) are much healthier for your frog.

    does your female have the fatty bumps behind each eye, they might be muscle bumps i dont know. if i could see some good, detailed pictures of females it might help me a little more. do you want me to post some pictures of my frogs front legs? thank you for all your help.
