In websites, most of the RSS feed icons are orange/red. For instance in Pro Webmasters also the RSS feed menu is orange i.e., in tag subscription. What's the reason for using like that?
Is there any procedure following along by the web developers to choose the color of the RSS feed menu?

I remember the icon was first used in Mozilla Firefox, and later adapted by Microsoft to be used in their Internet Explorer. Since then, it has became the web standard that the orange-colored icon symbolizes the RSS icon.
I don't think there's any specific reason to use the RSS icon in its orange color, as various designers (showcased through web design blogs) have made various alternatives in color and shape. However the orange color and rounded-square shape is easier to recognize as it has been used widely.
