Well, darling, when the lovely Earth stands between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on our lunar friend, the only rays that manage to reach the moon are those sneaky red ones. So, the poor moon ends up looking like it's been slapped with a rouge brush. How scandalous!
A blood moon appears red during a total lunar eclipse because the Earth's atmosphere scatters sunlight, filtering out shorter wavelengths and allowing longer red wavelengths to reflect onto the moon. This creates a red hue, similar to the color of sunset.
Though it's very likely the moon will appear red because the light that will reach the surface will be predominatly red, it may also appear to be brick-colored, rusty, blood red, or even dark grey depending on the conditions on the surface.
information on blood red moon
During a lunar eclipse, the Earth comes between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. This shadow causes the moon to darken and often appear red or orange in color, giving it the nickname "blood moon." The moon gradually moves out of the shadow, returning to its normal appearance.
Either it means It is going to snow or it is a new moon The moon appears to be red when certain conditions in the earth's atmosphere distort the light of the sun reflected off the moon's surface. The moon can also appear red during a lunar eclipse, such as the one that was visible from North America on Dec. 21, 2010. See attached link.
If you mean why isn't a cockroaches blood red, it is because they do not use hemoglobin to carry the oxygen in their blood. Hemoglobin is what causes blood to be red.

During a total lunar eclipse some light is refracted through Earth's atmosphere and onto the moon's surface. Because the refracted light is red, the moon will appear red like blood.

Lack of oxygen causes blood cells to appear blue. Remember that all veins except the pulmonary vein carry 'oxygen depleted blood' or deoxygenated blood. Dont worry that your veins appear blue though! Its fine.

no
Spiders have blue blood. In human blood oxygen is bound to hemoglobin which contains iron, giving it the blood a red color. In spiders, as well as other Arthropods and Molluscs, oxygen is bound to hemocyanin which contains copper, giving its blood a blue color. The same interaction that causes oxygenated blood to color, also causes iron rust to appear reddish and the oxidized copper to appear green. However, I have noticed no color in spider blood before.
blood moons are moons that look red
The moon can appear red when it is low on the horizon due to scattering of light by particles in the Earth's atmosphere. This scattering causes the shorter blue and green wavelengths to be scattered away, leaving the longer red wavelengths to reach our eyes, giving the moon a reddish appearance.
