Gender?

[GrifTheGreat]

Does the nuptual pad always appear at 3 inches and 8 months or does it differ depending on the frog? Does the pad appear on the inside of the thumb or the outside? Does that differ depending on frog?

How old is the frog in question again? We do not breed our females until they are at least a year old, but I prefer to wait until they are a year & a half old. The males, like most reptiles & amphibs, do not need to be as old as that. Some will mature quickly and be ready to spawn at 8 months and other will not be ready until they are over a year old.

If you look at the photos I posted earlier, you will see that the beard is not darker on males as some information states. And some of us have also stated that the face being flatter is not always 100% sure. ALL of them will scream in defense if provoked (Males & Females)......and many will grumble when misted.
Good Luck with breeding.....it is work and make sure you are prepared for all the tadpoles!!

goober isnt a year old probably only 6months 8 at the most goober is only 2 inches in length

2 inches is way too small yet for breeding. Give him/her time to grow and also time to make sure of gender.

I actually thought this as well. Because mine growled when he/she was angry with me for wipping substrate from his/her eye. I know the spots on the chin aren't an accurate assesment because both Grif and the baby have them and I've seen several photos of males and females no to mention the photos from Jessica that show both genders having them. It is possible to have a transgender frog. All animals can have this mutationa. But one gender is usually favored and fully works while the other reproductive organs are inert. So who knows. I guess we've all got so much more to learn. Being taught everyday Lol!

Those are excellent illustrations. Great info. Now we all know.lol We should be able to tell the gender. Great work Jessica. I still interested in your stock. LOL

My frog must have gotten a sexchange.....
I knew he/she was up to something!!!

The pad appears when the frog is hormonally mature.......it could be smaller than the 3 inches and it could be younger than the 8 months or even older. It does differ depending on the frog. We have some frogs that grow slower than the rest.....as a result, they take longer to mature.

The Nuptual pads will be on the thumbs......anywhere from under the toe to on top of it depending on the frog.
