    for better identification a picture may be needed but if its a pacman frog, males are usually
    an inch or two smaller than females and call (sounds like a duck almost) females are usually larger.
    if its a south african pixie, it will most likely reach lengths of 8 or more inches and sometimes call
    (sounds like a water buffalo's moo) and females are about half this size. these are what i think
    your frog may be but a picture would help.

    ok, if its a tomato frog, females will be around four inches in snout to vent length and
    males will be around two to three inches. males are usually orangeish and have mild
    red coloing while females are really red all over. i have a male tomato frog. the one
    pictured isnt mine but here's a picture of a pair in amplexis (mating) im not sure
    how heavy tomatoes get at adult size.
