Cuckoo Maran or Barred Rock

I ordered one of each from Ideal.  They are 10.5 weeks.  There is a pretty big difference in the two chicks.  This is the largest.  Which one is she, Maran or Rock?  Thanks.

Since the Marans (the "s" is always there, even when speaking of one bird) do not have the yellow legs of the Rocks, I'm going with BR.
