In short, probably brown. However... "Eye color is a complex trait that depends on the state of several interacting genes. The gene that usually decides the issue (blue eyes or brown eyes) is the OCA2 gene on chromosome 15. But it comes in different strengths. A person with a weak form of the OCA2 gene will have blue eyes. Likewise a person with a strong form will have brown eyes. The plot thickens, though, because an individual also has other eye-color genes that each has a say in the final eye-color outcome. For example, if one of these lesser genes is strong, it can make the weak form (blue) of OCA2 work much more effectively - almost like the strong form (brown). Then the eye color may be a light brown or muddy grey. In fact, the resulting color can be any shade of brown, hazel/green, or blue depending on the strengths of the interactions." quoting: http://www.usatoday.com/tech/columnist/aprilholladay/2004-10-14-wonderquest_x.htm This throws the BB bb argument out the window. While, yes, it is more likely that the child will have brown eyes, it is far from guaranteed. It is even possible for two blue eyed people, or one blue and one green, to have brown eyed babies. There is no real way of knowing exactly what will happen until the baby is born.
The inheritance of eye color is complicated and involves more than one gene. Each child has a 75% probablility of brown eyes and a 18.75% probability of green eyes and a 6.25% probablity of blue eyes. On average, about three quarters of the children of this cross will have brown eyes, three sixteenths green eyes, and one sixteenth blue eyes.
Unless you know which set of alleles your parents passed onto you and which ones your spouse's parents passed on to him/her, this will be difficult to tell.
However, if we confine ourselves strictly to mother and father, brown eyes are dominant over grey eyes. In many cases then, we can conclude, the baby would have brown eyes.
But also it should be taken into consideration that eye color doesn't work the same way as other traits, such as "dimples or no dimples" or "widow's peak or no widow's peak." It pretty much goes to say that with phenotype (physical appearance), traits can be mixed, displaying more or less of one or the other parent. Perhaps the eyes might be blue, even, one or both of the parents' parents had blue eyes. Colors in eyes can be mixed, and can be more than one color (hazel and green make chesnut eyes, blue and green eyes are common, and grey and blue eyes, etc.), or they can be many different shades or completely unique (the common example is Elizabeth Taylor, with her famous violet eyes).
In addition to this, when the haploid sex cells combine there are technically four distinct possibilities for each trait. And since we can't know which of the four possible "outcomes" this baby will be for this particular trait, it's really very hard to tell.
yes, if the maternal grandfathers eyes sre blue then the blue eye color gene is passed down from the maternal grandfather through the parents to the child
brown
Hazel eyes.

The Baby will almost definitely have brown hair and brown eyes. If the father has a blonde haired gene or blue eyed gene (if one of his parents or grand parents had blonde hair and blue eyes) there is a possibility the baby will have blonde hair and blue eyes (one in four chance).
Does anyone on either side of the family have red hair? If your grandparent - or your baby's father - had a grandparent with red hair the baby could have it. You have to look farther back than just your parents & his parents.
the male has GREEN eyes and the female has BROWN eyes what eye color would the baby have
Green eyes are more rare than blue eyes. Brown eyes are the dominant characteristic, so they're not rare at all. Green eyes are rare, because it tends to occur when a brown-eyed/green-eyed couple have a baby. Most of the time, that baby will have brown eyes (since brown eyes are dominant). However, sometimes, the baby can have green eyes.
Yes.
The baby will have green eyes and either red or brown hair :)
No that would create a moose.
Possibly. It depends if you are you are carrying the allel for brown eyes. And it depends if that is recessive or dominant.
it will be a black baby.
Yes. Brown is the domanent color. Look at his parents and her parents eyes. what colors do they have?
the eye's more likely will be black, but could turn out to be the fathers color. i had a child and i had brown eyes and my husband had brown eye's and my mother has green aye's and my daughter had green eye's when she was born.
yes
first of all, how can you have gray eyes!second of all, it would probably have brown hair, and green eyes.
the baby would most likely have brown hair and blue eyes
Yes, I have a son that has green eyes. I have blue, his father has brown.
It is possible for the child's eyes to be any colour - blue, green, black, brown... more than likely a mixture or a aquamarine blue with a hint of green, surprisingly green is a recessive gene to brown and blue, my mom had brown eyes an my dad had green so i have brown, and my friends mother had green eyes an her father had sky blue an there child had blue eyes my friend an her other siblings had aquamarine..itsa verry good mixture !
