How does eye color gene work?

214 views

If my paternal great grandmother had green eyes but both my grandparents, parents and myself have brown eyes, what are the chances that my baby will have green or blue eyes if my partner had green eyes or blue eyes? And do I still carry the green eye gene?

Blue eye color is a recessive gene. Unless one of your parents had it and passed it on to you and the same for your mate than the chance is 25%.

You’d both have to carry the gene. Blue eye color isn’t expressed unless you inherit both copies from both parents.
