Research question

It's vital to know for my nanowrimo novel whether all babies are born with blue eyes or not. A child who will grow up to have very dark brown eyes, would they still be blue at birth? And if so how soon would they change?

I love having knowledgable friends.

So a hispanic father/white mother could produce a baby born with dark eyes?

Gosh, but this is facinating to dwell upon.

Her name's Grace-Ayn, btw. I'm so happy to finally have a name for her.

Correct. I understand that dark coloring is (generally) genetically dominant, so the baby would most likely have dark eyes.
