    Default M or F

    You guys probably see this question lots, but I wanted some more advance frog owners opinions to judge by photos.

    M or F? I've done my own research and am leaning towards F based on the mouth, but it does make noise at night which I read only males make...

    Looks like a female imo but advanced keepers will give you a more definite answer. What size is it and how old?

    Its slightly bigger than my palm, so 4" roughly ?

    I've had it for 1.5 years and it was very small when I got it

    I'd go for a female, by that size at that age however more factors can determine the size. Hopefully someone with more experience can give you an exact answer but from my research into this species (as I plan on keeping them at some point) I'd say you're right in thinking its a female

    Check the thumbs for nuptialpads, they will look like little moles almost on the thumb and they will be in the same spot on both hands. At 1.5 years if its a he it should have them by now. This would be one of the best ways for you to determine what sex it is.

    won't this only show in breeding conditions? I've heard the throats of males are yellow but females cream
