In addition, we also have the {qItbe'} a female kind of guineafowl.

Cousins are {lorbe'} and {lorloD}, and {tey'be'} and {tey'loD}.

This might confirm that the gender follows the type it odifies. Having 
{be'nal} and {loDnal}, doe not count by the way, beause here, all the 
nal-ed family memebers end with {-nal}.

But what if Klingons do not make a difference with babies? We don't do 
that in English either, do we?

To avoid the problem, I would make this two phrases:
{ghu vIlegh. loD ghaH.}
