    What color is my Nigerian Buck?

    I was given a buck who's parents are registered but he isn't as of yet. I am trying to figure out what color he would be considered for the paper work. All your help is greatly appreciated. He does have a little bit of brown on his hooves. but everywhere else is black and white.
