Male and female Horse Norns, illustrating gender differences.

In the Creatures games there are two genders or sexes, male and female. Like real life, bother genders exhibit different characteristics, both physical and genetic. For example, female creatures can lay eggs, whereas male creatures can't, and sprites for male and female creatures often have variations.

Via the use of a genetic editor it is indeed possible to give creatures of one gender the genes of the opposite (see Harry). It unfortunately isn't possible for these norns to get pregnant or reproduce under normal circumstances due to the way the games are scripted, although third-party COBs can be used in order to initiate an artificial pregnancy.

Did you know: If a female creature within C3/DS die whilst she is pregnant, a glitch can sometimes occur causing the offspring to be born genderless, despite using sprites from either gender. A selection of genderless creatures can be found on The Creatures Repository here.
