Mum was blue, Dad was brown. DH is brown, 3 DD all have blue eyes and DS has brown eyes. They all describe mine as mucky duck puddle. They used to be blue, then grey now more greeny grey and as another poster said change with my mood.

Navy blue/grey. DH are the exact same colour.

Beaverbridge · 06/08/2023 21:22

Green.

Daisythecat15 · 06/08/2023 21:32

Brown. With an almost black ring around the edges.

My mum has green eyes and my dad brown. Both me and brother have brown eyes, sadly didn't inherit my mum's lovely green!

when people say green eyes do they mean hazel? I have lots of people in my family with greeny/blue eyes but have never seen pure green eyes but everyone on MNs seems to have them?!

No our eyes are emerald green so no chance of looking remotely hazel

SwirlyShirly · 06/08/2023 21:37

I've got dark green brown, DH has blue, both DSs have blue

I have grey/blue, DH brown. DS' are unusual

Beautiful eyes but what colour do you even say these are? They're such a mix

UndercoverCop · 06/08/2023 22:00

@MyBrownEyedHandsomeBoy I don't really know! The outer ring looks quite dark in this photo but it's a grey/blue, in natural light it looks lighter, the inner bit golden brown I guess?
A nurse once said he had strange eyes, in front of him and me, he latched onto that for a while and not in a good way, so I just try and focus on telling him they're beautiful and not many people have eyes like his if he does mention it.

When he was tiny I assumed they were turning from blue to brown, but he's nearly five now and there has been no change in years.

I genuinely have no idea

poppym12 · 06/08/2023 22:37

That's what mine are like @UndercoverCop, with the bronzy ring around the middle. Mine are a bit greyer than that so don't look half as pretty.
