UPDATE ON FROGZILLA. So my pyxie is at 4 months and I would like to get everyone's impression on gender and growth. Thank yhall
Heres what it looked like when I first got it
Looking pretty...
Might be a bit early to tell; but looks like a healthy gravity defying male to me !
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !
What's it's length? Sorry Carlos, I'm sticking with female due to the first top picture.
Some are still hard to sex at four months. Some are not, for example fluxcore's pic at 4 months of his male. I could be wrong, and don't mind admitting it. I'm about 90% leaning female.
Also if you didn't notice, not many others are chiming in, it's still difficult to make a 100% definite answer on this one.
Like Carlos asked for, a picture of a "profile view" would probably help.
I'm going with female too, and I'm pretty sure based on pics provided.
Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
I was kidding with the grifs, editing their picture of their frog, guessing sex. On a more serious note though I thought I would show you what I see. You see those two significant indents, then blows out to stomach, that's where the change begins and you really see the difference between male and female. That's where i'm drawing my conclusion from.
you might see the same with very obese or very puffed out male
I'm going with female on that particular one because:
- it is not obese
- small head size in comparison to the body
- narrow top of the head.
BUT! I wanna know what size is a frog right now at 4 month age.
Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
I'll take a early guess and go with 5" at 4 months. For a female, that should be about right.
Yeah, but those pictures still look male to me early on. The head (even early on) was more pronounced.
I will say it again though, at this early age,nothing is 100%. I do not mind admitting if i'm wrong, and for the OP's sake, I hope I am. Females are still really cool to have though, they will eat just as much (if not more) than a male, and the SAME prey. (if you care about that.) They just do not keep you up all night croaking, and the difference is 1-3"s or so. That's nothing.
Here is picture with measurement in scale. The. little beast would hardly sit still.
Here are some better I tires with scale and what might be early nuptial pads?
Broken record here...too early. If I had to guess with just pics I'd say female.

Alright then I am officially I the lookout for a male pyxie. I will keep my females as they have grown on me it for years I have wanted a male. They usually sell fast or for a ton so if anyone has extra male about, hit this man up, because of as of now I have a harem awaiting him
