Uranus' atmosphere is made up of hydrogen, helium and methane. The methane in Uranus' upper atmosphere absorbs the red light from the sun but reflects the blue light from the sun back into space. This is why Uranus appear blue.
It's to be bluer because It has a mass 17 times greater, and a mean density about a third of earths. Its atmosphere is mainly hydrogen and helium, with some methane and ammonia, which makes Neptune bluer than Uranus. Neptune and Uranus have a high percentage of methane in their atmosphere which adsorb long-wavelength red light, so reflected sun light appears blue - green or blue. Neptune has more methane in it's atmosphere than Uranus which is why it appears bluer.
Neptune and Uranus are not blue. It's an illusion caused by the surfaces of the planets. Since we are so far away, we catch the opticle illusion of it. Almost like Mars, which is infact not red, though a pale rustic color.
Neptune is blue because of the high scale clouds of methane particles.
Uranus on the other hand absorbs the red light of the sun, and as an effect, reflects it's bueatiful, soothing blue green color. I'm sure a similar thing is also with Neptune, as it is so blue as well.
Earth is the planet that appears blue from space due to the reflection of sunlight on its oceans.
Helium makes up most of Neptunes atmosphere, and some within Uranus. It is this helium that gives Neptune it's blue hue.
Uranus and Neptune are both gas giants, but Neptune appears darker than Uranus because of its deeper blue coloration. This difference is primarily due to the presence of methane in Neptune's atmosphere, which absorbs red light, making the planet appear darker overall.
Uranus has a blue-green color as does Neptune
The blue color in Uranus and Neptune is primarily due to the presence of methane gas in their atmospheres. Methane absorbs red light and reflects blue light, giving these planets their distinctive blue hue.
Earth is the planet that appears blue from space due to the reflection of sunlight on its oceans.
Uranus is a greenish blue, and Neptune is blue.
The three blue planets in our solar system are Earth, Neptune, and Uranus. These planets appear blue due to the scattering of sunlight in their atmospheres by small particles.
They both are blue in colour.

because of a gas called methane that is the same gas that makes neptune blue
No. Uranus and Neptune owe their blue color primarily to the presence of methane.
Uranus and Neptune are the two planets in our solar system known to have methane in their atmospheres. Methane gives these planets their blue color and plays a role in their atmospheric processes.
Uranus has a blue-green color as does Neptune
Saturn not blue, but Uranus and Neptune are blue.
Earth is often called the "Blue Planet". Its surface is mostly covered in water (around 71%). Neptune appears blue because of methane gas in its atmosphere. Uranus is also blue, although the color is lighter (closer to aquamarine).
