What do you guys think of this 11.5 week old vlack australorp?

The one in the fourth pic is male.

Yeah that's what I believe, too. Do you think the first 3 are female? I can be satisfied with just 3

Yes. In the last set of photos, the first three birds are pullets.

What a relief! Now to make sure they all stay healthy and strong. If just one of them dies I will need to get more hens and make my first foray into flock integration...

Can I see individual pics of the three females? Just to be sure.

x3 on those three birds being ladies.
I'm sorry about the others. If it's any consolation, they're extremely handsome boys.

It's okay We actually decided to keep the very last boy because he is a mixed breed. I'm hoping he can mate with the hens without inbreeding issues (at worst he is their half brother) to bolster our hen numbers. Technically we aren't allowed to keep him, but we will give it a shot and hope no one complains.
