You are puting entirely too much emphasis on the movies. Saruman did not breed the Orcs. They were bred by Morgoth in the First Age and Sauron bred the Uruk-hai.

The definitive published answer is "..they mulitplied after the fashion of the children of Illuvitar". This means they had daddies, mommies, and babies, like humans and elves did.

Orc women are probably like Dwarf women. You never know who is who, but they are still able to get the job done!

In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.' 'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin "Oh.

So imagine Sauron at the baby orc nursury (i spell bad) looking at all the little baby orcs, "aw lookit the cut widdle orc! Hey, orcy, hey, its your uncle Sauron, the enemy of the free peoples of middle earth!" Turns to mother orc, "He's really cute, Griszkankshshi, you should be very proud"

If I had to venture a guess, I'd say that they knew no motherly love at all, were provided the bare necessities only to allow them to live and to allow only the strong to survive. Any weakness was weaned out of them, and those that showed kindness were most likely culled. |

Other then Tolkien says the Orcs bred after the manner of the Children of Iluvatar, you must remember that in The Hobbit and LotR it says that Bolg was the son of Azog, so Bolg had to have a mother if he was someones son.

Surely there must be an extensive writing about this somewhere? No one know about it?

I think there was actually a thread about whether or not orcs were redeemable (the way this thread now seems to be drifting). I guess the whole nature/nurture thing... *hmmm... if an orc cub were raised by elves, what would he be like?* |
