I think it's just magical mutation. They eat darkspawn flesh, and then change into something completely different.
I don't think the the broodmother's body itself births the darkspawn, but all the little tendrils and fleshy things that span out from her body like a massive root system do. That's how one broodmother can create so many darkspawn. Ever notice the multitudes of fleshy pods throughout the Death Legion thaig? Those fleshy vines and pods are disposable, growing and dying away like the many branches of a fruit-bearing tree. So yeah, darkspawn literally grow on trees. Living, mutated trees.
In fact, I do recall a big tree and branch motifs being shown in the intro movie when the darkspawn are described.
