In ZDN, you can set up feed items to be prepped on different days of the week by clicking the Su M T W R F Sa buttons, but also be on longer rotations of multiple weeks. For example, you can set up a feed item to be delivered every 2 weeks (or every 17 weeks!)
You need to set up two values: The "Every X Weeks" and the "Week of the Cycle".
Examples:
- Every other Tuesday: Check "T" and set to every 2 weeks, week 1 of cycle
- Alternate apples and bananas on Tuesdays: Check "Tuesday" for both Apples and Bananas.
- Apples: T 2 1 (Tues, Every 2 weeks, 1st week of cycle)
- Bananas T 2 2 (Tues, Every 2 weeks, 2nd week of cycle)
- Alternate apples, bananas, and carrots on Wednesdays: Check "Wednesday" for all three items. Set all three items to "Every 3 weeks".
- Apples: W 3 1 (Wed, Every 3 weeks, 1st week of cycle)
- Bananas W 3 2 (Wed, Every 3 weeks, 2nd week of cycle)
- Carrots W 3 3 (Wed, Every 3 weeks, 3rd week of cycle)
Notes: All cycles/rotations start from a single point in history. Therefore, every diet with an item that is "Every 2 weeks, first week of cycle" will appear (on Touchscreen or stickers) at the same time. This helps align animals across rotations.
