Looking at the underside is about the most effective way to determine the sex. Different colour morph can crossbreed but usually not possible across species unless closely related.

will the colour turn better after moult?

how much food do you feel per day?
is 4 sinking pellet(2mm) a day(2 morning 2 night) too much?

thanks all

Yes, moulting simply means a change in clothing. However, if there is shell rot, it might not recover immediately. Feeding regime seems ok. Just dun overfeed.
