i have young chickens that might be sick?

Question

I have 7 chickens that are about 11 weeks old and they are all doing good but some of them have pale legs. i only have 2 thats legs are the right color. they are all acting just fine but they have had pale legs pretty much all there life. also they sometimes get diarrhea but im not sure why. they have enough room and everything so i was wondering if there is something i can do about it. i am taking them to the fair in about a month and i want them to look good.

Update:

yeah they act perfectly fine. they act just like the other ones i have

Don't take them to the fair unless you have them checked out by a veterinarian. Where I live they have West Nile Virus which is spread by birds. Chickens are birds. Get them checked out.

colors on chickens can be a bit like the coloring on any other pet. The fair legged ones might (probably) just have light legs. IF they arent having any symptoms they are fine. Enjoy the fair :) As far as food of course you are feeding them food from the feed store? and plenty of water!

What are you feeding them? Are their legs weak or do they run around ok?
