The way Wolvden makes its image, color picking is pretty much impossible; there’s so much detail you’re likely to pick up a darker shade than whatever the default is, just because there’s so much shading from the fur texture. That said, I don’t think people mind if you eyeball it, or color pick and readjust manually from there!

As for the actual color picking, I haven’t used GIMP in ages so I can’t say why the dropper’s acting up, but have you tried taking a screenshot and picking from that? There’s also this nifty tool; you can grab the hex codes (or a screenshot) from here and paste them in manually :>

I see the poster is inactive but Im going to comment this for other GIMP users, dont use gimp for drawing. Go to a free program like krita instead. It's much better and easier to use as well as it has more tools.

for anyone curios like the previous commenter stated
i usually make the screenshot really bad quality by either making it really blurry or pixelating it that way, it's easier to find specific shades and color pick
