Will adding this buckling improve color diversity of future kids born to my does?

The buck I have now is only producing black kids and light red buckskin kids. I want to add diversity to my herd. Do you think that adding this buckling would help add diversity when he is old enough to breed? Or would he produce more of the same with the does that I have? Thanks.
My does are light buckskin, black, dark gold (red) and I have a junior doe that hasn't been bred yet who is black swiss marked, possibly carrying chocolate (her sister was chocolate swiss marked).

I did a LOT of reading today and learned that the only way this little red buckling would give me red kids is if my does are carrying red because red is the most recessive color there is. That's okay, I think I know what I need to look for now Thanks :)
