It's not Rudolph for sure! Because in the line 'And all of the other reindeers used to call him names.' If you have a book with the song of lyrics go get it. Read on several pages before the last and you'll see or go on the lyric page and see. I estiment it is Dasher. For more inform go to a Santa site.
No, the antlers do not fully grow until they reach maturity.
but they have two lumps for that.
The question is unclear as many people use "hoof" differently. Some use it to mean the entire foot, while others use it to mean just the toes. Reindeer have 2 large toes and 2 small toes on each foot.
If you are using "hooves" to mean feet, they each have four, just as any other reindeer would. Total, that's 32 hooves, unless you count Rudolph, which would make it 36.
If you mean hoof as a modified nail at the end of a toe, then if you count Rudolph, then there would be 144 hooves.. Reindeer have four toes on each foot, and each toe ends in a nail. Thus each reindeer has 16 hooves. The only animals which have only four hooves per animal are equines, who have only one toe per foot.
The story of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", was created by Robert Lewis May in 1939 as part of his job with Montgomery Ward. It was adapted into a song in 1948 by Johnny Marks.

And Rudolph of course.
Elk can see colors as research has that they have cones - the essential part of the eye used for seeing color. However, they have much fewer cones than humans do, which means they see colors of a different wavelength better.
They see colors more toward the violet end of the spectrum better. I suggest not wearing blue when you are trying to get close to an elk.
Yes gray in the winter and brown in the summer spring and fall to blend in to the trees
The flash of the White Tail is a warning to other deer that danger is present. Deer will allso "snort" "wheeze" and stomp the ground. If a deer senses something is close but can not smell it or is unsure- it will snort or stomp the ground to get a response. The tail is a perfect sign- bright white can be seen from a long way in the forest.
the reindeer with soft hooves and sneezes soap so that it could clean up.
As a reindeer Rudolph would be expected to eat pretty much the same things as other reindeer.
Reindeer mainly eat lichens in winter, especially reindeer moss [yes - that's really what it is called] - a unique adaptation among mammals - and they are the only animals except for some gastropods (snails and slugs) in which the enzyme lichenase, which breaks down lichenin (moss starches) to glucose, has been found. They also eat the leaves of willows and birches, sedges, and grasses when available. There is some evidence to suggest that on occasion, especially in the spring when other food is in extremely short supply, they will also feed on small rodents such as lemmings, fish and bird eggs. Reindeer herded by the Eskimos in eastern Russia have been known to devour mushrooms enthusiastically in late summer.

Ummmm......I hope you know that he isn't real. So he eats whatever you want him to.
A male reindeer is call a buck. A female reindeer is called a doe. A baby reindeer is called a fawn. calf
A young reindeer is called a calf. It is born with no antlers.
Vixen and Blitzen are the two reindeer named in the song.
That'd be Swedish for Thunder and Lightning in translation. Can't see why an US Santa would use Swedish named for his reindeer.
I believe that every year on Christmas eve Rudolph shines his red nose to clear the foggy skies for Santa. I mean how else would he be able to see?
Another view:
Rudolph was born that way, so Rudolph and the other reindeer thought it was a birth defect. They made fun of him because of his red nose and wouldn't play with him, even though Rudolph couldn't help it that his nose glowed red. This made Rudolph very sad, having all the other reindeer making fun of him, and no one to play with. I guess reindeer can be like kids (and adults), thinking that just because someone is different that they aren't "as good".
But then, when they realized what a speciall gift his red nose was, and how his glowing red nose could help guide the sleigh, Santa chose him to lead the other reindeer. That was when Rudolph and all the other reindeer realized that being different was not a bad thing, but was actually a good thing.
They all learned that just because someone is different doesn't mean they aren't just as good as every one else is. And now they don't make fun of others who are different anymore, either. They learned that everyone is special in their own way.
