Is Marco Valastro a biological son of Buddy?

No one in the velastro family has blonde hair or blue eyes. If its true that lisa gave birth to marco, then there's only one logical explaination. I'm from Italy, my grandparents had both dark hair and eyes, but four sons are like them, one have dark hair and grey eyes and one is blonde with green eyes, in Italy is normal, a lot of italians are blond with blue eyes!


If both parents have green eyes will their baby have green eyes?

Maybe. Could have blue eyes also. The same gene causes blue eyes and green eyes. The amount of melanin in the eye determines the eyes color. You might also consider making a Punnet-Square that can determine the chances of your baby having green eyes. You need to know the dominant/recessive genes of the parent.

Can black people have green eyes?

I'm Indian and I do. My mum and dad (my brother too) have dark brown eyes but my dad told me my granddad (his side) had green eyes. I don't know why we have green eyes, so don't ask. By the way they are natural.


Your mom eyes are brown and your dad's eyesv are gray and your brothers eyes are brown and your other brothers eyes are blue and you have green eyes why is that?

Brown eye color is dominant. Since the grandparents have blue eyes, which is recessive to brown, the parents with brown eyes can be carrying the blue eye color but the blue is not expressed. If both parents are carrying the blue eyed gene, the chances that a child would have blue eyes is 1 in 4. Yes, it is possible.

What is so special about green eyes?

Green eyes aren't really special. Green eyes are rare, and most people find them very beautiful. Usually if someone has green eyes, one or both of their parents has blue eyes. Green eyes are some what annoying because they have trouble with sunlight. Some colors you can find mixed with green eyes: Brown/Green (like mine) Grey/Green Hazel/Green And sometimes, turquiose eyes can also happen.


If your boyfriend and his dad are the only ones in all of their family that have blue eyes while everyone else has green and everyone in your family has brown eyes what color eyes will your baby have?
