Question
can you tell me what hair and eye colour my baby is likely to have ? i have dark blonde hair and green eyes although i was born with reddish/blonde hair (my parents both have brown hair, my mum has brown eyes and my dad has green). my partner has dark brown/black hair and brown eyes (his mum has dark brown hair and brown eyes and his dad had light brown hair and blue eyes.) thank you

Answer
All I can do is give you some odds Bonnie  You are carrying genes for light hair and eyes.  The father is carrying genes for dark hair and eyes but he is also carrying a gene for blue eyes since his father had blue eyes.  My guess is the that baby will have dark (halfway between dark and dark blond) hair with 50/50 chance of light eyes (blue or green)

I have already answered this Bonnie.  Here it is again
