It does colourize, but less intrusive than Flymake by default. Customise
the flycheck-error, flycheck-warning and flycheck-info faces to change the
colouring.
There is no package that changes his Flycheck highlights errors.

That is a known bug in Emacs 24.3. See
https://github.com/flycheck/flycheck/pull/372#issuecomment-39475673 for
details and a fix. The issue is fixed in upcoming Emacs 24.4
It's just a minor nuisance, though, and does not adversely affect Flycheck.
Also note that Flycheck has comprehensive documentation available at
http://flycheck.rtfd.org/ which includes installation and setup
instructions. Please take the time to read it.
