My marans purchased as straight run chicks are now 3 weeks old. Pullets or cockerels!?
Chick 4 is my splash marans, chick 3 is my blue marans, and chick 2 is our other splash marans.

I’ve had Marian’s 1x, straight run. Boys were pretty clear by 6 weeks old based on comb. So, if 3 weeks I’d think you’d see a little more color and/or comb growth by now if boys.
 
My BBS Marans are more feathered at 3 weeks but brooding in garage. At same age as your (3wks) I can clearly ID the boys.
1st two cockerels, last pullet on same day.
They are puffy bc I’m weaning heat during the day.
