I agree with Dave. The pores are small, and the head is not very wide. As far as color goes, there are some females that develop color and patterns that mimic that of the males, although, usually not quite as colorful. Color is not a reliable way to sex chucks. The chuck in question is also prety good size. A juvie male would have shown definite male characteristics already. The close up of the pores is a little fuzzy, but the pores do look small.
I would also say female.
