Baby Eye Color Predictor

Choose each parent's eye color to see a rough, just-for-fun chance of your baby's eye color. Real genetics are more complex — this is for fun, not a prediction.

Pick both parents' eye colors to see the chances.

How it works

Pick the mother's eye color and the father's eye color from the menus. We look up a rough probability split — brown, green/hazel, or blue — from simple, widely-shared approximation tables.

The bars show an estimated chance for each group, always adding up to 100%. The top line names the most likely color based on those numbers.

Eye color is shaped by many genes, and babies' eyes can also keep changing during the first year. Treat the result as a playful guess, not a real forecast.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is this? +

It's just for fun. The numbers come from simple, commonly-shared tables and ignore many real genetic factors, so treat them as a rough guess only.

Why isn't a baby's eye color set in stone? +

Many babies are born with lighter eyes that can darken over the first year as more pigment develops. Final color often isn't clear until around 9–12 months.

Can two blue-eyed parents have a brown-eyed baby? +

It's uncommon but possible, because eye color is controlled by several genes. Our table shows it as very unlikely, not impossible.
