The one on the left looks like a male to me, not because of the toe pads in particular, although they are more fluted out than the female on the right. They are both plump in the abdomen, but the one on the left has a more pointed, narrow pelvis, which suggests male to me. This is a WAG, and I'm no expert, but this may be just one of the things I notice unconsciously when I sex my own frogs by "instinct." Instinct is just subconscious things you notice about body habitus, subtle behavior over time that you can't always put a handle to, that later proves out by calling and breeding activity. I do not deliberately breed frogs-I have no ambitions for propagatins and sales. If they do it, fine, but they're on their own. I just try to give them their own resources and a healthy habitat and like to watch them.
