There are people around the world eats bugs and believe in bugs. I am sure lots of us have eaten them in just different formula like you said people freak out once they heard.
I can go for chapters in regarding bugs – but this post is for Magic red from Dean and I rather wanted him to let us know himself.
Good chatting guys
All getting too contentious for me, I just like to come here as a brief diversion from work and last thing I want is to butt in.

Just curious Dean you using Cochineal or carmine derived from the carcasses of South and Central America insect called the Dactylopius coccus (females). You can by the buy it by the gram, it recently was approved by the FDA.
You recently mentioned that your ingredient was recently approved by the FDA in a past post.
Sounds super cool - Wish your hubby could meet with my uncle- He used to do bug thingy with all the Russian siencetist since I grow up. That is why I said I had/have lots of grossed stories about them ( at least gross to me) - Actually the bugs were used for political reasons and I will not disclose herecindy wrote:Q, my husband is an entomoligist. I started looking up the natural recent red products approved by the FDA, told my my husband what I found....he said the insect has been known for it's distinct red properties.....so I presented the question....is this one of the ingredients? Guess not but interesting none the less.

Candace, you need to read what I am say/asking more carefully.
To add on to this, so does this mean they are not naturally born red?DanteD716 wrote:I am confused by this. I thought you are not supposed to colorfeed canaries? I was always taugjt that you breed for the strong color, and that they are red because of genetics.
I can't lie or make up the statement - My canaries have been showing/proving to me about the Magic Red .

Here is the more of that quate about the color 0000BF. I did read it that it was his color that was approved by the FDA
"The color is red powder made from only natural Red fruits, veg, and red seed the red powder should be mixed with canaries dry food not in water .. this color must be fed to the young's through their parents and as soon as they hatch, you will notice that there feathers and skin color became red even if their parents feathers color is yellow.
That was my created red food color for canaries, so wish me a good luck to keep going and hopping to discover new things to keep us and our birds happier . The color has been approved by the FDA and showing that has Zero chemical in it also Zero hot red pepper that can be harsh on the canary Kidney and digestive system ." quote from K
Any way...Bottom Line... Dean has the Best and safest colorant that I have ever seen

I believe that what Dean was saying has been approved by the FDA is his secret recipe.
Congrats Dean![]()
Of course I really don't think that anyone should be expecting Dean to give out all of the ingredients and ratios. At least not until he is able to get the patent on this product thus making it his and only his product.
Dante, if you are speaking of colofed birds..like the red factor... yes they are bred for getic colors but they will never obtain that color if not provided with the very food that their body uses to make these colors. Like flamingoes not getting the shrimp(contains caretenoids)they will molt out white....DanteD716 wrote:To add on to this, so does this mean they are not naturally born red?DanteD716 wrote:I am confused by this.

As for american singers, they are bred for song... but with Magic Red you can make a bird not bred genetically for red factor and have it red if you want to.
