Chams don't tend to get mites, but as in snakes I would look for red or black dots clustered around the pupils and eyelids.

Chams often climb on cage screen if there aren't enough plants or branches for them to travel on. Also, if they are new in the cage they are still getting to know the territory. Make sure there is a good hiding area (behind dense leaves). The cage might be too small too. Chams who climb on the screen a lot often pull out or break their claws by snagging them in the mesh.

I can't tell what you mean about discolorations on your female. Need more info or a pic.

No way to know how many babies the panthers will have! Not all eggs will survive to hatching so that is even harder to predict.

FYI, here are good cham care and info sites just in case you haven't seen them already:
