I'm posting a reply to this just so I can find it easier. I keep having to refer back to it to find out what type of chicken people are talking about. I get all of the normal abbreviations DH, DW etc. but i don't know enough about the different breeds to know their abbreviations. Thanks for posting these

I wish everyone would stop using abbreviations. I've been on this forum for a year, and 90% of the time I don't know what the writer is talking about. Does it take that long to type out the word(s)?

HA! Before I knew what the abbreviations meant, I figured "DH" meant DUMB HUSBAND! LMAO
