The first one is fraternal twins (which are more associated with heredity) and the second one is identical twins.
However, because your husband's mother is a twin, it may put you at a slightly higher chance for a twin pregnancy. This chance would be higher if your mother or grandmother had a history of twin pregnancies.

What is the probability of having twins if your husband is a twin?
Identical twins happen by chance only; 4 per 1000 births or 0.004 probability. Fraternal twin probability is increased only if it is on the mother's side; so this does you affect your circumstance (from what you have stated). The chance of fraternal twins is 1 in 60 or 0.017. So, your probability of identical twins is 0.004 and fraternal twins is 0.017 (BTW, I have triplets).
What are the chances of having twins when the father to be is an identical twin and his mother has identical twin brothers?
You have the same chance as the general population. Identical twins are a genetic accident, researchers still don't know what triggers an egg to split making two embryos from one fertilized egg.
What are the chances of identical twins having twins themselves?
Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.

Yes, you can.
Can someone that's not a twin have twins with a partner that's mother is a twin?
You don't have to be a twin to give birth to a twin, neither does your partner, the fact that one is or isn't a twin is irrelevant. So yes, someone that's not a twin can have twins with a partner that's mother is a twin.

the genes for twins only matter on your mother's side. Having a male partner with a history of twins will not affect you.

Can you have twins if your husbands grandmother was a twin?
Identical twins are 100% random, and fraternal twins (two eggs, two sperm) only have to do with the mom's genetics (the one who drops both eggs). The father really has nothing to do with making twins.
What are the chances of a brother and sister having twins but they are not twins and their parents are not twins.?
I DONT KNOW WHAT THE CHANCES ARE BUT MY SISTER-IN-LAW AND I BOTH HAVE A SET OF FRATERNAL TWIN GIRLS. HERS ARE 10 YEARS OLD AND MINE WILL BE 1 YEAR OLD IN ABOUT 2 MONTHS. IM SURE IT HAPPENS BUT I WOULD IMAGINE ITS NOT COMMON. MY HUSBANDS MOTHER WAS SHOCKED THAT HER DAUGHTER HAD TWINS, AND THEN HER SON HAD THEM. MY HUSBAND AND SISTER IN LAW ARE NOT TWINS. THEY HAVE TWIN AUNTS ON THEIR MOTHERS SIDE OF THE FAMILY, NONE ON THE FATHERS, AND I HAVE SEVERAL TWINS ON MY FATHERS SIDE, BUT NONE AT ALL ON MY MOTHERS. THE GENE IS ALWAYS CARRIED BY THE MOTHER TO DAUGHTER, SO I DONT KNOW JUST COINCIDENCE i GUESS.
Are twins more likely to have twins for their own child?
I have an identical twin. For me it is no more likely that I will have twins than anyone else because identical twins are just flukes. If you are a non- identical twin and that is because your mother had two eggs, then you may have this too, and it is more likely you will have twins.
Is twins the plural of twin?
Twin for 1 twins for both.
What is the probability of having twins if your dad is a fraternal twin and you are a identical twin and your moms dad is a fraternal twin?
The probability is the same as if you had no history of twins in your family. There is no genetic component with identical twins, it is just something that happens. Fraternal twins occur if a mother "drops" two eggs in one month. Your father being a fraternal twin does not make you "drop" more than one egg in a month and so does not increase your chances of having twins. Your maternal grandfather being a fraternal twin did not effect your mother's ability to drop more than one egg and so did not effect your ability to "drop" more than one egg and so does not increase your ability to have twins.
