yup to all above. i've never noticed that the spots go lighter, but the darker parts- black and brown will fade more

I have seen the dots get lighter. As the dark part get lighter, the spots do to, but you just don't notice as much because the darker part is also getting lighter.

No the differing odontodes between the same species usually is a sign of the males vs. females, males often have larger odontodes.
