    Looks like a boy to me, just puffed up in response to being disturbed.

    Looks like a healthy girl to me, head is to small, maby a adolescent male but not a 9 month old, here is my male at around 4 months right when his head exploded with growth before his body. I guess it could be a very feminin boy but I doubt it, try catching the croaks on a recording and post them. The frog croaking in that clip is a juvenile boy that's why it's a higher pitch, a 9 month old boy produces quite a bellow lol

    Well if you are hearing him croak then it is deff a boy. I don't really agree with everyone thinking an African Bullfrog has to be a set size or very wide mouth to be a male, I will post a picture of the AFB I purchased back in 2005 and it is positively a male, its no more than 6.5 inches long and has a very narrow mouth.

    I don't think everyone is implying "set size" or "mouth width" Even though I have to admit, the pictures are difficult to judge. Females CAN make noises under the substrate, even without being bothered. From what has been said though by the OP, it's a male, just more on the "unique" side, if you will. =)

    The picture you posted of your smallish male does have a broader head than OP's.

    I personally enjoy how this species varies greatly in looks and personality.

    I'm not disagreeing btw with anything you posted, just adding my .02

    EDIT: also looking at the pics once again, OP's frog does have large front legs (a male trait).
