Best Answer

When you have blue eyes and your parents don't, it means that maybe somebody else in the family did. Traits can be passed by different people, not all the time by parents. It could have been someone in your dad's side, or your mom's. Follow the link to the latest research. If both parents have brown eyes there is a one in four chance the child will have blue eyes.

Having blue eyes when your parents do not can be attributed to a recessive gene. Both parents may carry the gene for blue eyes but have dominant traits that show up instead. This can result in their child having blue eyes if they inherit the recessive gene from each parent.

What does blue eyed mean?
