colorblind?

I was just wondering if any of you had kids that were colorblind, and if so how old were you when you found out? I have a 2 1/2 yr old boy that we have been working on learning colors for a little over 3 months now, and he still can't tell me even one color. He looks at the object like he's really trying, but always says red. If you tell him 'not quite look close and try again' he always says yellow. I also have a 5 yr old girl and babysit 3 other kids girl-7 girl-5 and boy-3 and it seems like with the other kids after a few weeks they all at least knew the basic red, blue, green and yellow. Since we're going on almost 4 months with him I'm starting to get a little concerned. Maternal grandfather is a little colorblind (browns and greens) and Paternal great-grandfather and great-aunt are totally colorblind. Any info would be a great help. TIA
