i can only help you on the sexing, since i am a newb myself

at the base of the tail, if there is a bludge you got yourself a male.

Sexing - Two large hemipenal bulges at the base of the tail. Very easy to sex. Females have no bulge.

Full grown at 1 to 2 years at total of about 4 inches long. After a year, they get heavier.

Eating - Should eat after acclimation or right away. They are pretty agressive eaters.

Breeding can be tricky. They have to acclimate well.

TIP - Make sure that the cage substrate is very fine sand. Completely wet down one half of the tank. The animals will dig burrows. Keep that side moist all the time. When they feel safe in their burrows, they will generally start eating right away (if they were not before that).
