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!)

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!
