So. I've been told the best way to sex these little guys (grey treeforgs) is to look at the colouring of the throat. well umm.. hmm.. yeah.. Maybe I'm colourblind or their all the same sex? Ones whitish-ones greyish-ones black-ish. I dont know how well these pictures worked out, but they arnt easy to photograph...so. let them guesses fly.

It would be easier to help if you posted ventral pics showing their throats.

Don't know about those but in horned frogs darker throat means males, might work the same way.

Cant sex those based on pics, they look male. Look below for comparison.

Ok i was feeling nice so here is a comparison between a male and a female. I will not be taking any more pics of them. None. The flash hurts there eyes, hell it hurts mine. I dont want to cause any long term damage to them, especially my one male he only has one eye! As seen here! Anyways this should help. The difference is very clear....

FEMALE

Oh ya, make sure you do not make the water "pond" for these guys too deep. They like very shallow pools, like mud puddles, and cannot swim well. I keep mine about 1" or so deep. The puddle where i found them was about that at the deepest, and that was where they were breeding.
Cheers
