So?....do you think she cheated or do you just not like redheads?

both my parents have jet black hair and I'm platinum blonde what does your kid having red hair have to do with anything? it sounds like recessive genes no big deal

I'd be more worried if he came Out black. A lot of kids are born with red hair when their parents are blond

Yeah bro.. Recessive gene. It's a mutation in the MCR-12 gene, which was the last adaptation made to the human genome. So congrats on having the most 'advanced' form of human as a child.

Everybody who keeps saying OP is an idiot and red hair is recessive . . . Why don't YOU take biology ??? Yes, red hair is recessive to most other hair colors, but it is dominant over blonde hair, which is recessive to EVERYTHING . Blonde hair is like type O blood, you can't have it unless both of your parents do . So if OP and his wife are both blonde, it is genetically impossible for them to have a red headed baby together .

Like a lot of people are saying, it is possible. I have green eyes where my mom has blue and my dad brown. None of my grandparent, aunts, or uncles have green eyes and neither did my great grandparent or great great grandparents. My eyes probably came from the relatives that died decades ago, which is probably what happened with your baby.

Get a paternity test before you assume it's not yours, op it's completely possible it's still yours

I have brown hair blue eyes while being white. My mom is a red head with green eyes, my dad was dark skinned, had brown hair and brown eyes. I was born with blonde hair but it darkened at around two. Your son is most likely yours
