    Default pacman..noise question

    so I have a pacman, an albino, which I believe to be male due to the fact that one particular day it gave a few short, quiet growls as I tapped it on the back. It has made no noise since or before. It has never flipped out and gone on a frog screaming fit like that one youtube video that made me laugh myself into a coughing fit. So, I assumed it to be male by the fact that it did, on one occasion, clearly make noise. Is it correct that female pacmans make no noise at all, ever? Are the albinos unusually quite compared to the standard green colored pacman?
    I am specifically referring to behavior such as this: Angry Frog - YouTube Mine does nothing of the sort and you can even pick it up (recommend feeding it first) and it does not scream at you.

    Growling doesn't mean it's male. Both males and females can growl, hiss, bark, and make popping/clicking sounds, but only males call(croak) and it is very loud and unmistakable.

    Pleases don't torment your frog it causes unnecessary stress.

    ahh well perhaps then it is female, because it has never called. It really does not like being picked up and placed in a bucket for cage cleaning but oddly enough it doesn't get all angry like the ones on youtube, so now I'll need to find another way to determine the sex.

    males have nuptial pads, females don't.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    I believe it is slightly greater in size to a softball. I can't seem to find my tape measure (and it would probably try to eat it)

    Lol! That sounds pretty normal. I'd say female, but you should post some pics for us to be sure.
