Answer: The phenotypic ratio of the offsprings is 2 blue-eyed : 2 brown-eyed goats.

Explanation: A heterozygous blue-eyed goat will have a genotype of Bb while a homozygous brown-eyed goat will have a genotype of bb. Bb x bb = Bb, Bb, bb and bb. Bb will manifest outwardly as blue-eyed goats while bb will manifest outwardly as brown-eyed goats, the ratio of blue-eyed to brown-eyed goats is 2:2.
