- Female toads are generally larger because of the many eggs they carry.
- Females have thinner arms than males, which have stronger, muscular forearms.
- During the breeding season, male toads have dark "thumbs" or metatarsal knobs on their front legs. These extra rough patches enable them to clamp a female during breeding season. (The thumbs return to normal once breeding season is over.)
- Male toads are noisier, as the females make no sound.
- During breeding season, the male's throat sac is darker.
Well, There are many ways you can tell the gender of your toad but the most common way is to LIGHTLY tap your toad on it's back, if it croaks it's telling you that its not calling at this time( which only boy toads do). Another way you can tell is by observing your toad closely atleast twice a day, if you do this chances are you will find a month were its calling( as I said before, only boy toads do this) but if you observe it daily and it doesn't do this, that means its a girl, Also boy toad's thumbs are very big!!!
