How can I work out what eye colour my children will have.

I have green eyes and my partner has blue eyes.

  1. It's hard to tell. I believe blue is dominant. My mom has brown and dad hazel. I have blue. Hard to tell.


  2. There's a little grid chart you can make, I know the blue gene is dominate. I think there's a 50% chance your kids will have blue eyes.. or maybe 75. It's been a while since I've taken Biology.  

  3. There are multiple genes that code for eye color, so it's really hard to predict base don only two people in the family. You can exclude the possibility of brown eyes, as brown is the dominant trait in eye color. Blue is considered the recessive trait, as blue contains the least amount of melanain. Green is the rarest trait, usually the result of a mutated gene for eye color. It contains an intermediate amount of melanin. Your children will most likely have green eyes as green is the dominant eye trait over blue, but since it is multiple genes, they could also have blue eyes.

  4. There is no way to predict that.  All caucasian babies are born with blue eyes and they change (or not) eventually.  Sometimes many times.  Anyway, you might have a relative with brown or hazel eyes whose DNA might show up.  There's just no way to predict the final adult eye color of your kids.  My older ones are teens.  They come from parents with green and hazel eyes.  One's eyes have stayed an amazing, intense steely-sky blue, the other one's are a wonderous mixture of mossy green, aqua, and a tinge of yellow. The third one is still little, and her eyes are True Blue (she will tell you this herself upon introduction).  No way to know for sure.

  5. I'm pretty sure green is dominant over blue from what I learned a few years ago.  My dad has blue eyes and my mom has green, both my brother and myself have green.  

  6. it depends upon the strength of the genes...

    if you know what is your recessive trait,

    you will be able to identify...

    not all the time your blue eye color will be dominant

    because the recessive gene of you may be the

    dominant trait..

    like what i have said earlier  , it depends...

  7. I'm pretty sure blue is the dominant gene, and green is less common.

    My guess would be blue, but you never know.
