Possibly possible, so to speak.
It is not completely known the number of genes that produce eye color, but it is well known that brown eye color is probably a dominant gene, since a majority of all people have them. OCA2 and HERC2 are the most possible main genes for eyes, but are complex so the dominant and recessive genes can't be displayed as just Bb or BRbr. If either of the parent's parents' have brown eyes, or really anyone in the family does, then there is a possibility to. There is a chance for the child to be born with practically any eye color, but there is a good chance that they will be brown.
TL;DR: Any color is possible, and there is an about 50/50 chance they will be brown, since there are more blue eyed people, but brown is more dominant.
P.S. TL;DR means: Too long; Didn't read.

∙ 14y agothey COULD but its highly unlikely because they aren't blonde or blue eyed. its more likely if someone in the family had either if those traits... someone other than the parents. sometimes black parents bore a white kid, so if that's possible, then your scenario is POSSIBLE, but definetly not LIKELY

Can to blue eyed parents have brown eyed children?
no they cannot because if you have blue eyes, your alleles are bb, and so... bb and bb have no B, and therefore, with no dominant gene, there cannot be a brown eyed child.
If you crossed a homozygous dominant man with brown eyes with a homozygous recessive woman with blue eyes what color or colors would their children have?
I don't know what your scientific terms mean, but I can tell you that I am a blue eyed female (my father was brown eyed/my mother had hazel eyes). The father of my two children is brown eyed. Both of my children have blue eyes.
If a man had black hair and blue eyes and the woman had blond hair blue eyes can the child come out with brown eyes blond hair if the grandmother had brown eyes?
Blue eyes are a recessive trait. If at least one of the parents had a blue/hazel eyes with a mixture of blue and brown, then the couple's offspring could have brown eyes. If both parents had solid blue eyes, neither would have the dominant brown gene to pass to the baby, and it would have blue eyes, regardless of the grandmother's eye color.
Can a brown eyed man and a brown eyed woman have a blue eyed baby?
Yes, because your genes have both dominant and recessive traits, so you may have 1 blue and 1 brown and your wife may have 1 blue and 1 brown and (and this is gross simplification) when your genes combine if even one of your brown traits gets passed onto the child it will have brown eyes.
Can a baby have blue eyes if both parents have brown eyes and grandparents on one side have blue and brown and on the other side have green and brown?
yes, although the likely hood chance is that it will have brown eyes as both of the parents do.
How can this be possible where the couple has brown eyes and the child can have blue eyes?
Blue eyes are a recessive trait, while brown eyes are dominant. If both parents are heterozygous for brown eyes, it means they both carry the recessive trait for blue eyes, and so there is a 25% chance their offspring will be blue-eyed.
If brown eyed Karen marries a blue-eyed man even though her father had blue eyes what color teyes will her children have?
There is no way to actually predict the answer. You an figure the "odds" of Karen having blue eyed children, but not actually predict the outcome. For example In a family where 3 out of 4 grandparents had blue eyes and 1 of 2 parents had blue eyes - the couple had two children, both of which had brown eyes. Another couple with the same statistics had one child with blue eyes. Another couple with the same statistics had 2 blue eyed children. The "Odds" are dependent on a concept called recessive and dominant genes. The gene for blue eyes is "recessive". Which means a baby must get 1 gene for blue eyes from BOTH parents in order to have blue eyes. Because 1 parent has brown eyes, we know that parent has at least 1 dominant brown eyed gene. So one parent has Br b combo (BR=brown b=blue). The other parent has blue eyes so has a b b combination. Of course, the brown eyed parent may have two brown eyed genes and no blue eyed genes. Go figure. Any way, the chances of having a blue eyed baby is slimmer than having a brown eyed baby. How you get a green eyed baby.....I don't know. Finally - some consolation: All babies are born with blue eyes, so while it may be short lived, enjoy it while it lasts

Can green eyed woman and brown eyed man have blue eyed children?
Yes, it's possible. My sister & her husband are this same combination and both of their daughters have blue eyes. Also my friend and her husband both have brown eyes and 1 of their 3 kids has blue.
Can both brown eyed parents have 2 brown eye children and one child with green eyes?
It really depends on genetics down the parents line. Brown pigmentation on the eyes is a dominant allele on the gene and where 2 brown eyed parents reproduce, there is a high chance that all children will have brown eyes. However, if both parents carry a gene for blue eyes, which is recessive, there is a chance that both genes will meet and create off spring with blue eyes. This is known in laymans terms as a 'throw back', i.e. some one on either genetic line has had blue eyes. So yes, it is possible for parents with brown eyes to have 2 children with blue eyes and one with brown.
Iam African American with brown eyes my boyfriend is caucasian with blue eyes what color eyes will your children have?
Mostly brown, as blue eyes is recessive trait. So unless both have blue eyes it is very difficult to see.
Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes in humans The genetic makeup of blue-eyed children who have brown-eyed parents must be?
B (dominant) is for brown and b (recessive) is for blue. If both parents have brown eyes, for them to have a blue-eyed child their genotypes (the combination of b's) must both be Bb, because they both need to provide a little b (to have blue eyes you must be double recessive (bb)). This is worked out using a Punnett Square. (example: https://mcglynn-bioreview4.wikispaces.com/file/view/basicpunnetsquare.jpg)

What eye color do you mix with brown and blue?
My husband has hazel eyes and I have brown eyes, both of our children have brown eyes

yes, although the likely hood chance is that it will have brown eyes as both of the parents do.
