How many 4 week olds are there? Can you post pictures of the 11 week olds? How did you acquire these birds? As far as I can tell, they look like barnyard mixes.
 
So, in picture order I would say #1, #2, #4, and #8 are definite cockerels. I am also suspicious of #7 and slightly suspicious of #5, but would personally wait and see what they look like in another 2-4 weeks. #3 looks like a pullet to me at this point, but I would say also wait and see. You may have ended up with mostly, if not all, males.
