Going to have to agree with Grabibus here.

[Lija]

beautiful girl!

[African bullfrogs]

Ya thats wat i thought but the container i got her in said male pixie frog

[SCF]

How big is it?

[FLUXCORE]

Yep that's a healthy female, males have much broder heads

[African bullfrogs]

So because this one has a broder head can it be a male?

[African bullfrogs]

How old is that male?

[FLUXCORE]

My male in the first page is around five months old

[African bullfrogs]

Oh cool

Very nice girl, good snag! Her colors look like my female. She's 4 years and has some pretty deep reds/oranges under her arms and yellow down the legs. I love how those colors can vary!

[Herpguy]

All I see is a lot of patronizing. AB got screwed and lied to here. If you have the seller's contact information I would see if they could give you a refund (unlikely), and if they do not post a bad guy thread on the faunaclassifieds boi.

are these nuptial pads? and it looks like there is yellow on his/her throat does this mean it could be possibly a male?

[bullfrog1986]

why male?

[African bullfrogs]

because thats what I was told

she can't be possibly a male, just because she is a female. nuptial pads would be on the inside of the thumbs. It is common for females to have bright coloring. as you were advised get a refund if possible if that is a male you're after or just enjoy healthy, pretty frog.

Pyxis typically do not get nuptial pads unless they are in breeding condition. Meaning, they have Brumated, are calling and ready to breed after waking. your frog is female. If it was sold as a male you definitely got ripped off if you paid more than 60 dollars or so. Larger sub adult females such as yours will go from 40 to 60 dollars if you're lucky

lol Deedub is talking about US prices, in CAN you're lucky if you get a baby for 50$, usually in stores prices are around 60-70$ for a baby pixie.

Lol...sorry Lija. Hey, move to the states. We've got socialist Medicine now too!.....grain of salt....I've found its hard to joke using text. The tones just aren't there.
