Black Copper Marans - Which is which?

[lisal124]

Both of these were hatched on Mar. 5. Obviously one is a hen and one is a rooster because they are so completely different. Which is the hen and which is the rooster? Help! Please!

Chick 1

Chick 2

First one male, second one female

Cockerel, pullet.

Keep in mind both are pretty mossy for Black Coppers though - They will theoretically give nice dark eggs, but the "mossiness" (extra red) is not a desired physical trait.
