they shouldnt, its a sign of phosphorus abuse. plant beater! hahah naw im just playin, but u should back off the nutes a bit and addd sum nitrogen, thats the most common problem with fan leafes in flowering. ive seen (AND DONE IT MYSELF) it alot on here since i joined.

The leaves could be yellowing either because the plant is getting too much or too little nutrients. Pics would be more helpful, but if you don't think you are overfeeding them, you may not be, it's not uncommon for a plant to take back some leaves if it is hungry.

its normal when you stop feeding nutes the last week to flush, but before that the leaves need to stay perfectly green

If your plant is using more energy then it is taking in, then it will start to take back it's own leaves for nutrients. If you are flushing at the end of your grow, then it is perfectly normal since you are no longer feeding it but it still wants to live. If you aren't flushing, then your plant should look all green and happy until you do. If you don't flush at all, your plant should look green until you kill it.
Hope this cleared things up a bit.
