    What's it's length? Sorry Carlos, I'm sticking with female due to the first top picture.

    Can you please provide a pic of his head from the side? Keep your hopes up... one of these days it may croak !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Some are still hard to sex at four months. Some are not, for example fluxcore's pic at 4 months of his male. I could be wrong, and don't mind admitting it. I'm about 90% leaning female.

    Also if you didn't notice, not many others are chiming in, it's still difficult to make a 100% definite answer on this one.

    Like Carlos asked for, a picture of a "profile view" would probably help.

    I'm going with female too, and I'm pretty sure based on pics provided.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    I was kidding with the grifs, editing their picture of their frog, guessing sex. On a more serious note though I thought I would show you what I see. You see those two significant indents, then blows out to stomach, that's where the change begins and you really see the difference between male and female. That's where i'm drawing my conclusion from.

    you might see the same with very obese or very puffed out male
    I'm going with female on that particular one because:
    - it is not obese
    - small head size in comparison to the body
    - narrow top of the head.

    BUT! I wanna know what size is a frog right now at 4 month age.

    I'll take a early guess and go with 5" at 4 months. For a female, that should be about right.

    Nuptial pads appear on the outer edge of the thumb towards the chest.

    To be honest I figured I had a female to, my frog didn't have the slightest looking male traits until it was around 5 months and it literally exploded into a male BEFORE
    then it happened AFTER

    Yeah, but those pictures still look male to me early on. The head (even early on) was more pronounced.

    I will say it again though, at this early age,nothing is 100%. I do not mind admitting if i'm wrong, and for the OP's sake, I hope I am. Females are still really cool to have though, they will eat just as much (if not more) than a male, and the SAME prey. (if you care about that.) They just do not keep you up all night croaking, and the difference is 1-3"s or so. That's nothing.
