I still see a lot of comb for being about three weeks old.

The next 3 weeks will make a big difference. At least by my guess you are about 50/50.
Which coincidentally is the accuracy of my guessing...

Last 5 chicks. Sorry I didn't change the last pics to small! The last pic is the only one with a dark comb.

I'm going to go even farther out on a limb and bet that 3 and 4 in this picture are your keeper blue and black

In a few more weeks you will probably be able to tell which boys are which
