I would't be concerned. Heat can really affect them. It's been hot here too and the girls have slowed down some. They'll bounce back.
5 for 8 yesterday for me. A hot one today so I don't expect much.

I've been putting frozen water bottles in a metal dog bowl in the coop at night because it is so hot! Especially when the inside coop temps are over 80 at night. I don't know how much it helps, but I like to think it does. I've also noticed that when it is really hot some of them roost on the ground in the coop instead of on the perches/roosts. I guess that is because "heat rises", so it's cooler on the floor.

Egg production dropped so I am not bothering to tally 2 or 3 a day. Poor kids. Fans running, cold water plus ice bottles added in it. Watering down my runs and giving frozen treat blocks of fruit.
