The answer is yes, the parents have to be heterozygous in this case. which means (B,b). The B is the dominant trait, so it masks the recessive one (b).

In other words, B is the b+ genotype while the b is the o+ blood type.

If you draw a punnet square label the top and side with the heterozygous term. (B.b)

4 outcomes are possible (remember other factors will change the outcome.)

(B,B) (B,b) (B,b) (b,b)

The (b,b) offspring is recessive and has the O+ blood type

Can o positive and o positive have b positive baby?

No, two parents with O type blood cannot have a child with B type blood. This is because O is recessive - meaning in order to have type O blood, you need to have two O alleles. Therefore if both parents have O blood, all their children have to have O type blood. In order to have a child with B type blood, at least one parent needs to have B or AB type blood - in order to donate the B allele to the child.
