Anyone noticing an unusually poor November egg production?

my 3 golden comets and one of my easter eggers are still laying daily while the other easter egger lays a couple times a week and both of my french black copper marans have stopped laying altogether
 
my production has dropped off by a bit less than 10 percent.

I have a lot of orders for eggs and can't possibly fill them. The girls have slacked off tremendously. Any guesses when they will start back up?

I have 10 hens and 2 are going thru a molt so I know they won't be laying. But I have not got any eggs in close to 2 weeks from the other 8. I don't know what is going on.
 
My eight older girls are mostly in a moult, so we are down to maybe one to three per day out of the eight. The younger girls (February hatch, with one still brooding) are down to one to five per day. Egg production is down over last year, but owing to the moult, and the sudden cold weather and storminess, I am not too surprised.
 
Wow, those are surprisingly low #'s. We have 13 hens, one is broody and are usually getting 5-9 eggs per day. We're in Iowa. This is our first fall with chickens so I don't have anything to compare to. To those who have very few eggs do you have any ideas??
