he certainly looks like a black silver, but to be sure check out the colors of his parents. Does anyone have other modifying color genes? These can be an agouti (bay), cream, buckskin (bay plus cream), perlino, champaign, pearl or dun. And you can get him tested: pull hair with roots. Here's a link www.ucdavis.edu He is mighty cute and such a wonderful color!
