Don't know why one pic didn't turn out.  I'm thinking one is black and one is cinnamon.  Maybe a lighting issue with the sun?   :dunno:

I say yes.  Texture of hide and coloration seems different.  You'll likely get more pics and know for sure.

Yes, the first one looks to have a rubbed/thinner hide. Second one seems to be a bit bigger.
