The colour is canthaxanthin which I understand to be a "natural" colour.
If the rest of the feesd is "natural" too then it shold all fall within the same definition.
However some of the ingredients of the feed would have to be proved to be natural also eg the blood - horse, chicken or cow and the treatments received by the donor (?) animal. Feathers and grain also and any oher density adjusting aditives.
Would one have to say " natural but frozen" ?
