How can you tell if an Easter Egger is a Rooster

So... Im new to the whole chicken raising scene, and I happen to have two 11 week Easter eggers too, but I would like to know if one of them is a Roo.

The first one I have is a brownish-black and yellowish one that I call Boople. I'm pretty sure Boople is a hen, because she has a small comb growth right now, and is pretty docile.

But then there's Snoot. Snoot is another brownish-black chicken, but they have red coloring on their head, and a really red comb. Snoot was also pretty mean to some seven week old baby Wyandottes when I tried to introduce them.

As I said before, I'm new to chickens, so it is possible Snoot might just be an aggressive pullet, but I would rather ask some more experienced chicken owners first.
Pics?
 
Here they are! I took some of Boople and Snoot, so that they could be compare with one another.

This is Snoot, the one that has the reddest comb. They are both 11 weeks old, and from the same place.

(please ignore the terrible cam quality, I don't have the best camera on my phone)

This is Boople. I'm sure Boople is a pullet, but I do need help with Snoot.
I couldn't grab Snoot for a close-up picture, they were struggling too much.
(Also I don't know what they looked like as chicks, we got them at nine weeks old.)
