Is this a Male or Female? I've had it for about a year now.

I love that frog ! Uncle Ben has been taking great care of him! Time for his "daddy" to start power feeding him again ! ;)
 
I have that same ruler in 12" and 18". I love them! Anyways, very cool frog.
 
I was wondering, shouldn't he be bigger since we have had him over a year? I always thought that the males grew very fast? Have I stunted it's growth? I mainly feed him night crawlers dusted with calcium and vitamins and dusted crickets. MAC do you think mice would help him gain size? P.S. I still haven't named it !

Not mice all the time. Lotta crickets still. Mice every now and then

Yes, 100% a boy. And yes, I am 100% jealous. My girl lost all of her orange she had going.
 
My big male Skinny got to 6" in half a year, yours should of been at least 5" by now but guessing some just grow slower than others. Mice once a month or so is fine. Can you get any Dubia or Discoid roaches? They're a lot better than crickets, have not needed to buy crickets since I started my roach colonies this time last year.
 
he is a bit small for hes age ,get them dubia down him (female ones),,great colour
 
I think males are bigger than females and obviosly they are the ones that make nigth time calls:D
