How do you determine a frog's gender?

Answer 1

• A rule of thumb: males ears tympanic membrane (the circle "thingy" right behind the eyes) is larger than his eye. In females, the tympanic membrane is smaller than the eye. This will work in most cases with frogs, but this will not work with tree frogs or toads.

• look at the frogs thumb pad. if it is thick or big, its a male. if it looks like a regular hand sorta would, its a female

• The male frogs usually have a larger thumb than the female frogs.

• Well the female is 2 1/2 - 3inches and the males are about 2- 2 1/2 inches + the males croak.

• to tell a frogs gender is very simple look at the back legs and if the middle finger is longer then the others it's a female if it's short it's male

• the females are darker and the male is lighter

• The same way you would find the gender of most other animals with two genders, via observation of the sexual organ present at the lower bottom of the Frog. Male would indicate the animal have the male 'input', and a female would require the obvious female 'output' or 'hole'.

• Female frogs are generally larger, and males frogs generally have a dark patch on its feet or toes to 'grip' the female with during mating, but it varies between each species. in most species only males sing, and males and females throats may be a different color. before you can tell the difference you will have to work out which species your frog is.

• you look at there head and if the head is round on a frog then it is a boy
• MALE: The males have a high pitched croak (well lets just say higher than the females!)
• FEMALE: The females have a low pitched croak (lower then the males...)
• Male frogs have adhesive thumb pads on the medial surface of the first toe of each foreleg, females don't.

• if the neck is bumpy it is male

• males are smaller than females

• males croak to loud noises, vacuums, and to find mates at night

• those are some ways to find out they are easier to tell on adults than on younger ones Male frogs have thumb pads...they have fatter thumbs than females of the same species. It gives them an advantage to holding on to the back of the female during spawning.

• I would also like to point out that there has always appeared to be less males than females. Generally, the female is larger. Her skin is rougher and has more bumps. She is silent and her throat sack is not dark in color. The male has smoother skin and is much smaller. His arms are thick and powerful looking compared to a female.

• Male frogs have very fat "thumbs". During spawning, the male needs to hold on tightly to the female. He does so by jamming his thumbs into her flanks.

• Well the organs are on the inside so if you aren't planning on dissecting it, then it's the one on top when mating. Also, some species of frogs have different markings based upon their sex.

At Adulthood, most female frogs and toads (and Salamanders and Newts, for that matter) are larger than the males so that the female can support the male in amplexus (amphibian mating)

It always depends on what type of frog you have, but with most frogs, males are smaller than females. Also, look at their hands. Males have thick black pads on their thumbs for clinging onto females during the mating process. During mating season, usually the male will go up high on a branch, tree, or leaf and croak to attract a female, while the females stay low and will not croak at all.
frogs don't have external organs like we do. The only way to tell is to look inside of them. You would have to cut them and check for the uterus. (if it is present it is a female)

Answer 3

One of the main ways to tell if a frog is male is to examine its "thumbs". Male frogs clasp females during the breeding process by using their "thumbs" which are enlarged at the base.
