Why?
As far as I know, "col" and "border" do only affect the fitted values ("diamonds"), i.e. the FEM/REM estimators (see ?forest.rma: "col: character string specifying the name of a color to use for _the fitted_ values (‘"darkgray"’ by default).") Furthermore, I had a quick look at the source code and it might be a bug. If I replace in line 2770 the line cex * efac), col = "black", ...) with cex * efac), col = col, ...) you can at least specify your own colour. Changing the border color seems a bit more tricky... However, Wolfgang Viechbauer (the package author) is always a very responsive and helpful person and I suggest you better wait for his answer.
