Size and growth rate are the only really good indicators. Males will call when older. You also have to make sure which species of pyxie frog you have. The dwarf, which is quite common in pet stores, will max out at around 5 or 6 inches in males while the true pyxie will have males hit from about 6 or 7 to 9 or 10 inches.
