I’m agree with Aule and Feanaro regarding to the Silmarillion’s appointment; It’s said that the Orcs can to breed at the same that the Sons of Iluvatar. I think that it give a clear trail.
Moreover, in the Hobbit, there are a reference to the Orc children. Consequently, if they breeded at the same that the humans and the Orc children existed, they would have female-Orcs.(Even if, surely, they was ugly as the Orcs and wasn’t impossible to differ)
Farewell
