Yes, when fired, dull grey clay can turn red due to the oxidation of iron oxide present in the clay. This transformation occurs as the clay is exposed to high temperatures, which causes chemical reactions that change its color. The specific shade of red can vary depending on the clay's composition and firing conditions.
There are different minerals present in each clay body. Red clay typically has a higher iron content than grey clay.
clay can come in different colours: dull grey brown orange/red green
Its red because of the minerals that mix together to form that color :)
Terracotta is an earthenware clay. It contains, in addition to the usual clay minerals of alumnia and silica, a fair amount of iron oxide, which gives it the characteristic red colour.

Clay comes in the colours from a dull grey to an orangey red, this is because these are natural colours and clay would only come in natural colours in old greece, and Clays exhibit plasticity when mixed with water in certain proportions. The person who wrote the other answer is right but there are lots more facts about clay and if you type in to google clay facts, then lots of really good things will come up.
A mixture of dirt/clay and water. It is usually brown, grey or red and thick or sloppy
Bricks are typically red due to the presence of iron oxide in the clay used to make them. When fired in a kiln, this iron oxide gives bricks their distinctive red color. The color can also be influenced by the temperature at which the bricks are fired.
A common colour of clay is reddish-brown. However, there are many varieties of clay ranging from greyish to orange-red in colour. Ray

Terracotta is a clay-based unglazed ceramic, although the term can also be applied to glazed ceramics where the fired body is porous and red in color.
