I have heard from many people that cheddar cheese is dyed with carrots juice to get the coloring. I dont know if it is true but many of the chefs I work with have all said the same. Anybody else heard of this?

I think that's a misconception. Carrot juice reduces the shelf like of the cheese and alters the flavour. Annato seed is harmless and tasteless and the most common colouring agent in cheese.
