Default panther cham, boy or girl?
what do you reckon? i would expect less colours if it were female, theres not much in the way of a hemipenal bulge, i have a customer who reckons his is male and flashing colours on and off at half the size, his is nosey be though, dont know if it makes any difference.

Are all chams not sexed by their back feet? Or is it different for different species?

yes all male chams have a small (tiny) bump on their back foot. As they get bigger males are usually bigger too. I think im right but check it neways

Colour when young isn't much of an indicator. It takes quite a bit of time for their colours to truly come through. I think it's a male judging by the wideness of the tale. I could be wrong though! (the colours do look more femaleish!)

Hey people! Sorry I've been offline for ages, I managed to blow up my RAM last week and have just got the replacements through! All good now though! Also, just want to thank everyone who voted for my pic in POTM! I came 3rd! So proud of my little guy! I've updated the pics of my setup if you want to take a look!

Panthers don't have the spurs on their back feet! It's a trait of yemens that people often think applies to all species! sadly it doesn't!

The colour is femalish but it isn't the best indicator especially when they are young!

Curty.
