Fat little cuties

My approximately 3-month old pyxies -- both about 3" STV. I know, they are probably too young to tell, and I should take more pictures of different views, but any guesses on gender on either one? First pic is through the glass; the other pic was taken from the top.

I was going to guess at both being male due to the head width, but 3" at 3 months is on the smaller side for males. It looks like a toss up for the time being.

For what it is worth, the staple diet for their few weeks here were crickets. They didn't start eating worms well for at least probably 3 weeks. They've really grown since I started feeding them worms. I *think* I may have heard some croaking, but not sure (heard something, could have just been noise from deflating). They were supposed to go to a friend in January, but her plans changed and she couldn't make it here. So they are officially mine.

Pretty Dwarfs. It looks like a male on the right/bottom. The one on the left/top has a narrower head and is a bit smaller, so I'm thinking female.

Dwarfs? These were purchased as giants. From everything I've seen they are giants -- are they dwarfs or giants? Below are pictures of the two soon after I got them.

Now that's odd... They had the three green stripes as froglets like the giants and horizontal eye bars, but they have white tympanum markings, tan lines on the back, and light vertical stripes from the eyes to the mouth like a dwarf. Are your frogs from Mozambique by chance? There's a subspecies of Pyxie frogs that's almost a hybrid of the giant and dwarf species, with characteristics of both. There's a great post on here that shows the physical differences between the giants and dwarves.
