How long does it take for a female pacman to reach breeding age? Also, how do you sex babies?

Thanks,
Chris

They should reach sexual maturity after about a year, but I would wait at least a year and a half to two years before breeding a female, just to make sure she's done growing. And as babies the only way to sex them is to disect them, after 6-8 months you should be able to sex your frogs accurately.

So there is no real way to sex a female baby??? How about an adult?? say I was going to go to the pet store and they had an adult sitting there. How do I tell??

Thanks,

You'll need to see it to know what I'm talking about, but once it's an adult male, it will have an extra thick patch of skin on the inside of it's forearms for gripping a female, if it's female it won't have this. It may not be dark, but I've checked about 8 frogs and it's held true for all of them, you can usually notice it about 6 or 8 months old. Just be careful they don't like it when you try to mess with them like that to check for sex.
