Does wild weather affect egg production?

[hikechick]

THe last couple of days we've had crazy weather, sun, hail, wind, hard rain, mist, everything but snow it seems and egg production seems to be down (from 5-6 a day to 3-4 the last few days). Could this be weather related? Anyone else see this sort of behavior?
