For all we know, he may have gotten a different egg cell from a different woman, and a different foster mother as well. Kojima already retconned the LET by having it occur before Big Boss's coma.

Solidus's early years are unknown. We don't know he was never Nicaraguan. For all we know he lived in Timbuktu before heading to the States.

We've not seen Big Boss as a child to make a fair comparison. Chico has green eyes and brown hair, as does Solid, Liquid, and presumably Solidus.
