Genetics is quite tricky. Traits from family members many generations past can show up in the child of a mother with brown hair and eyes, and father having brown hair and hazel eyes. Many times, the child's hair and eyes will darken as they get older. From a personal experience, I had attended school with a boy that had both pale blond hair and blue eyes. By the time he was 12, his hair was very dark brown and he had brown eyes. I think humans tend to think only the parents have an effect on the genetics of a child.. but that just is not the case. There have also been findings in two, thought to be, Caucasian parents having a child with very dark skin... they way genetics work is completely unpredictable.
I am not a expert or anything. I am only talking from experience. My father has olive skin, black hair and brown eyes and my mother has green eyes, dark brown hair and olive skin and when i was born i was blond hair dark blue eyes and fair skin.
bad luck mate....:S
-Yes. It just means that both parents are heterozygous for both traits. Meaning they each have a dominant allele and a recessive allele for each trait. The odds are slim, about 1/16, but it is entirely possible and does in fact happen.
you both have to have a recessive gene for blue eyes and blonde hair. that means a parent or grandparent has to have had blue eyes and blonde hair. it doesn't have to be the same ones but it has to have both on both sides.
but sorry most hazel eye'd people have a color and a hazel co-dominate gene like the guy probly has a brown or green gene and the hazel is blending it. so they probly don't' have a blue eye gene unless they have blue hazel.
i have blue/honey hazel eyes my dad had dark brown eyes and my mom had brown hazel so I'm sure i got the hazel from her and my dad's dad had blue eyes so that's where that came from

Yes, if both parents carry the gene for blue eyes. Hazel is often a green eye with brown in it. Green eyes and blue eyes are caused by the same gene.
Probably brown.
The genetics of eye color are more complex than previously understood. Almost any parent-child combination of eye colors can occur.
It is possible, since the brown eyes could be a recessive or dominant trait in either the mother's or father's genotypes, and the father and mother might just be carriers of the brown eye gene in their genotype.
This can definitely happen because of the concept of genetics. This especially deals with dominant and recessive traits. If both parents have one dominant trait and one recessive trait (causing dark hair and eyes) and both parents give their child the recissive traits, this outcome is possible (although pretty rare it is seen).
brown, blue, green, and hazel
Probably brown.
Yes, it depends on the grandparents as well. Blue eyes are a recessive trait and can occur if the trait runs in either family.
It's possible (about a 1 in 4 chance).
Most likely hazel or green. Blue eyes are a recessive gene, so it is very possible for two brown-eyed parents to have a blue-eyed child.
Yes, absolutely. Hazel eyes is the combination of the blue and brown eye color gene. For instance, a blue eyed mother and brown eyed father could have a hazel eye colored child. So that means all hazel eyed children can have a brown eyed child because they carry the brown eyed gene in their DNA from their father, in this case.

The answer depends on the genetics of the brown-eyed mother. If she has two brown alleles, than most likely the baby will also have brown eyes. However, if the mother has one brown allele and one blue allele (and thus phenotypically brown-eyed, as brown is dominant), it is certainly possible for the baby to have blue eyes (receiving one blue allele from the mother, and one blue allele from the father...if in fact the father is blue-green hazel). Mendelian genetics, in this case, would approximate 25% of the babies to be born blue-eyed.
Possible, but might turn out hazel

This is possible, depending on the genes that manifest after conception and birth.
