What is the percentage of my child getting colored blue eyes? ?
-
Both my spouse and I have brown eyes, but I have lighter brown than she does. Our parents have brown eyes, but my father has lighter brown eyes than me (light brown). As far as I know our grandparents have brown eyes too with the exception of my grandfather. He has bright sky blue eyes. So what are the probabilities of my child getting blue eyes?

Answer:
Not very high, somewhere in the range of 2%-5%.

Brown-eyed parents can have children with brown, blue or virtually any other color eyes. Eye color is very complicated and involves many genes I have 3 children 1 with brown eyes, 1 with green and 1 with blue. No one on both sides of our family have blue eyes (may be a long distant relative, a great great, great nana..)

Eye color is independent of heridity . So normal probability . 2 is 300

i would say about 1 in 16 :L

If he does not have blue eyes in his family, then nothing. If he had a grandparent with blue eyes like you do, then it would be a 1 in 16 chance. In order to have a blue eyed child you both need to give the baby a recessive blue eyed gene and you both have at least one dominant brown eyed gene. Even one of those genes will make a brown eyed baby.
