My Partner Has Blue Eyes With Light Brown Hair Which Used To Be Blonde As Child, I Have A Dark Auburn Hair With Dark Brown Eyes. My Mother Has Dark Eyes My Dad Has Blue Partners Parents Are Both Blue, What Eye/ Hair Color Would My Child Be?

Since blue eyes is recessive, your partner must have two copies of the blue-eyed gene (bb).  By this same reasoning your dad must also be (bb), so we know that he gave you a blue eyed gene (b).  Since you're dark-eyed, you must have at least one dark-eyed gene (B).  This means you are (Bb) and your wife is (bb).  Under "ideal" circumstances then, you can expect 50% blue-eyed children (bb), and 50% dark-eyed children (Bb).

Hair color on the other hand is dependant on many genes and is much more difficult to predict.
