In IA they talk there is gaunts who initially can reproduce by laying eggs. But nothing in this regard for stealers. I think world which stop paying tithe could raise some questions. And subsector and then sector administratum send request to Militarum. And that gonna be this cult's fate.
But again, GSC codex said patriarch can control mutations on some degrees. So technically after some time passed he can start mutate hybrids into other bioforms with same cult cycle

Oh I just remember. There is entire Rogue trader dynasty is the Cult in Void King novel. And their base planes also cult. So yeah. They just start spread cult's all around

IIRC the Patriarch's Throne can grow Boneswords, so given enough time time & resources it might be able to grow other things.

Rechecked and it can grow familiars which technically separate bioform, so yeah It's can try grow other things

I spread the Cult you need somehow deliver your purestrain or make your 4th generation breed with humans on new world and make them not kill little genestealers who Borns. Also I don't understand if broodmind need to control those of 4th generation.
