That is normal behavior for a hummingbird. You can try making several different hummingbird feeders available so they don't have to share the same one.

How can you tell the difference between a girl and boy hummingbird?

As with many species of birds, male hummingbirds are typically more brightly colored than females. In North America, the most common species of hummingbird are the Ruby-Throated and the Rufous. Both species are sexually dimorphic (meaning you can tell the difference between a male and a female by looking at them). Male Ruby-Throated hummers have a bright red gorget (or bib) that the females lack. Likewise, male Rufous hummers have a bright orange gorget, while females do not. When hummingbirds are young and sexually immature, males and females can appear identical. Also, there are a couple of species, such as the Berylline and Buff-bellied hummingbirds, where the color variation between an adult male and female are difficult to distinguish.
