    Default Runt of the litter?

    Is it possible to have a runt ACF?

    I have 3, and recently 2 of them have grown considerably bigger than the possible runt. No... they other 2 are not both females. 1 is male and 1 is female.

    Not too sure what the runt is yet. No black fingers or arms, which could suggest female. But I bought them all at the same time and all at a similar size. This is why I was wondering if it is possible to have a runt female.

    It also seems not to eat as readily as the larger 2.

    It could be possible that the frog has an illness? keep an eye on the frog, it might not be the case but something simular happened to me and turned out the frog was ill.

    I have a female ACF whom i rescued from a pet shop as a skinny little runt, she is now fully grown and about 75% the size of the males whom she shares a tank with. I noticed on my last batch of frogs that the ones who metamorphised last had a slower growth rate than the previous ones.
