    Not sure by the pictures but here is how you tell
    Male-
    Nupial pads
    Female-
    Cloaca

    Male
    Female


    but yours might not be old enough to tell so you may have to wait for them to mature.

    Yes so excited someone replied thank you so much! I just got them as froglets towards end of October. I'm completely new in keeping them so was hoping someone would comment on how they look. I've been trying to feed them a variety they eat reptomin, shrimp pellets, hermet crab food which is whole shrimp, krill, and crickets

    they do look good and their is great as well. Also if you ever want to feed live food for any reason stay away from goldfish and go with guppies but you do need to quarantine both anyways to make sure there are no parasites or disease. But you can also feed them earthworms,and wax worms. But wax worms don't feed to often because some have found their animals to become addicted almost. The earthworms though can be great as long as the frogs like them. For example my male would strike in the beginning but now he just goes to the other side of the tank. But my female as soon as one hit the water she is there. I do this every so often because i have an axolotl that eats them to so i use it as a treat but really as long as they accept them you could even use earthworms or trout worms as staple diets. But i don't because i personally rinse the dirt off and its some what time consuming for me.

    It takes about 9 months for a female to become sexually active and a year for a male. Your frogs are looking good and healthy. One of the most important things to remember about keeping these frogs is to make sure the water is clean and at the proper temperature (between 68-72 degrees (F). Temperatures above 80(F) can be fatal. As far as feeding goes, these frogs will just about eat anything that doesn't eat them first Many will eat prepared foods like Tetra's Repto-Min. In fact, all my ACFs eat Repto-Min exclusively. I do have a problem feeding live fish (my opinion) and absolutely no freeze-dried foods for ACFs and ADFs because it causes bloating.

    I usually feed my frogs nightcrawlers from walmart but they will also eat European nightcrawlers aka Super red worms which are also available at wm. The euros are smaller and might be easier to feed unless you cut the nightcrawlers up. Mine go crazy for worms and often get into a tug of war over them. I occasionally add ghost shrimp to the tank as well. The frogs eventually pick them off but they do some cleaning too.
