| Gender of creatures describes their role in the production of offspring. Mating in Shores of Hazeron produces live young. Egg hatching is not implemented, even though eggs exist as a commodity.

|
| |
| =Female=
| |
| Females mate with males to produce offspring. A male is sexually compatible with a female if they share the same phylum and ecological role. The offspring's DNA is a combination of its parents' DNA. Females gestate the young inside their bodies.
