It's supposed to be male and about 4 months old. This is my first and it's really hard to sex them at this age. All of you with experience with this please let me know what you think. I have til this Tuesday(10/6/15) to be able to send back for a new one. And he seems small for 4 months also. I can only do one pic for some reason on my iPhone so I'll try to post replies with more.
What do you think the sex is of my Panther chameleon?

My guess is male. But you need to take some better pics. Get his tail as straight out as possible and focus in really good.
Here's another pic and I'll reply with two more.

Cool thanks guys for the help! I was worried cause I was confused by the indent at the tail base and what bump I was to look for haha. Plus his colors were making me wonder. Cause at 4 months I figured he'd display some orange around the eyes or a little blue. Good to know he'll be a beautiful male and I don't have to deal with the exchange! He's still timid and scared so I've been trying to show him I'm not a threat, I bear food(let the crickets jump out of my hands so he sees, and I'm not going to handle him. Easing towards handling by trying to hand feed. He didn't go for a small superworm in hand or tweezers. But finally got him to take a cricket from tweezers today! Tried a second but he wasn't down for that, so I'll try again in the morn. Hard to refrain from watching him and to giving him space, but also want him to get used to me in the room. So usually I'll move slowly in and watch a little from below while playing on my phone. So excited! Hope I do well training him! Thanks once again and sorry for rambling!!
