Abbreviations for chicken breeds?

[Lobzi]

Hi, I am relatively new to being a chicken owner (one month). I have been reading and reading postings on the forum trying to learn as much as I can so I can be a good chicken owner.
I see a lot of use of abbreviations for chicken breeds. Is there some listing of these common abbreviations that I can refer to for a resource and to learn what they stand for?
Thanks for any guidance to learning this,
Robin

If there is, I dont know about it.

BLRW - Blue Laced Red Wyandotte
SLW - Silver Laced Wyandotte
GLW- Gold Laced Wyandotte
NN- Naked Neck
SG- Show Girl
SQ- Stands for "Show Quality"
EE- Easter Egger
BO- Buff Orpington


If you see one and dont know what it stands for, just ask!
