Most likely to occur would be blue or a variation of blue (green or purple)
This is because both have a dominant gene for Blue and getting the dominant gene in the offspring would be a 50% chance.
The other genes both would be a 25% chance in getting and brown would be a long shot since the probabilities of getting a dominant gene in yellow red and blue are low
