I have a Silver Laced Wyandotte that is very pale in color like a light pink, also i noticed her tail feathers aren't up they are downward. I don't know what could be wrong with her. Also should I let her be around the other chickens?
 
Give her a check up. Check her abdomen, see if she's swollen there, or has an egg- meaning: egg bound.
If nothing seems out of ordinary there, check her crop in the morning and make sure she's empty.

Bright red combs are a sign of healthy hens, and dark and light combs aren't so good.

Don't get panicked just yet- just be aware that chickens can raise and lower their tails. Is her attitude any different? Is she lethargic...etc...?

Make sure she's eating and drinking, too.

Blessings!
