What are the chances of having a ginger baby?

If one parent is a natural redhead, and the other carries the gene, that gives them a 50% chance of their child being ginger. However, if the other parent has no ginger genes, the probability of a ginger baby falls to 0%.

How do I know if I carry the ginger gene?

If you don’t have the recessive Red gene none of your offspring will have red hair but all of them will carry the red gene from their dad so red-headed grandchildren are on the cards. If you do have the recessive red gene then 1 in 4 of your children will be redheads.

Will 2 redheads have a redheaded baby?

For a recessive trait to be expressed the individual must be pure breeding, hence two red heads can not produce any other colour in a child. If red hair is dominant, the chances are one in four that a child will NOT be a red head if mum and dad are both ginger nuts.
