As far as I'm aware, eyes and skintone are passed on separately to the next generation. My alien had a child with a human and the child kept both the eyes and the skin colour. The next generation lost the skintone, but kept the eyes. Three generations on, and the eyes are still there. My guess is your first generation bred the eyes out.

The trick with "alien" eyes is that the alien eye is actually a not-eye. This is why humans cannot inherit the alien-eye: When they do, they just get the eye imprinted onto the skintone itself, which tends to be brown and Maxian. You would need to get an alien-default-replacement eye that is actually black, not merely null-alpha, for it to work.

Do your older aliens have alien eyes?  I just wondered because some of the alien skins you can download have normal eyes, so perhaps you're using one of those?

I use a default replacement alien skintone (the one made from Louis's green tone), and it hasn't affected the eyes at all for me. I get a mix of alien eyes and human eyes on my kids from abduction just like normal.
