For this purpose, weekly average of henna partridge egg yields of 148 days from the herd consisting of 320 breeders were taken and cubic spline, Gompertz, Logistic, Richard, Schunute, Quadratic Spline, McNally and Gamma equations were used in the modeling. In the comparison of the goodness of fit of the equations, Determination Coefficient〖(R〗^2), Mean Square Error (MSE), Durbin-Watson (DW) and Akaike Information Criteria (AIC) values were taken into account. As a result of the study, Logistic (MSE= 12.4, R^2= 0.994, AIC= 43.56, DW= 2.09), Cubic Spline (MSE= 10.56, R^2= 0.996, AIC= 46.55, DW= 1.95) and McNally (MSE= 11.02, R^2= 0.996, AIC= 48.67, DW= 2.11) models were found to have the best results with similar results. It was concluded that the Schnute (MSE= 11.24, R^2= 0.990, AIC= 136.51, DW= 0.49), Gamma (MSE= 24.67, R^2= 0.991, AIC= 69.89, DW= 2.95) and Quadratic Spline (MSE= 10.43, R^2= 0.946, AIC= 149.34, DW= 2.97) models had the worst results.
