I think my chickens missed me...

a windy hill in southwestern Indiana...
My family and I went camping for 5 days during which I had two generous helpers take care of my 5 girls. My mother in law let them out into the run each morning and my neighbor/friend visited in the evening and gave them yummy treats and shut them up in the coop for the night... I have seen no signs of predators, nothing is out of the ordinary but upon my return there was 1 egg.. the next day 1 rubbery egg without a shell.. then NO EGGS the following 3 days...
Finally I had a day off from work and staked out the coop... by the end of the day we had 4 perfect, beautiful eggs!
Could the chickens have been thrown off by the change? I was really freaking out about diet/predation/health but I feel all is well now... did they miss me? :)
