Research question

[eleneariel]

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.

I'm almost positive that children with dark eyes later in life are not born with blue eyes. I don't think any of us kids were born with blue eyes. ::trots off to ask Mother::

Nope, none of us were born with blue eyes. We all have medium to dark brown eyes now (and then).

This is good. I wanted to be able to have a dark-eyed baby from the start...

And so you can. :-) Mom said the color of eyes we were born with were pretty much the shade we ended up with.
