    Telling from your profile picture though, Zalt is probably a female. You can tell from the thickness/skinniness of their legs. However, it's near impossible to tell their gender when they're young.

    Huh. You usually tell the gender by their front legs. I dunno. I'm not a scientist! :P

    Cool, thanks! But yeah, judging by throat color, Zalt is a female! I have never found a male toad. Lola, the one in my avatar is also a female.

    Well, I guess more toads are female then male.
