It depends on what you mean by "blue/green" do you actually mean blue? If so about half-
If you have blue eyes you have both the recessive genes required for this. If your husband has brown eyes but a BLUE eyed father than he has a single recessive gene that is not expressed. In which case, any child would have a 50/50- they would get a blue gene from you and either a brown or blue gene from your husband..
However green is totally different- whether your and your husband's father have blue or green eyes is very important.
