Working on abbreviations for newbe's. Can anyone add to it.

I wanted to start a list of abbreviations for the difference kinds of chickens there are. If you know of any more could you copy this list, post a new reply and place it in.
This may help some of us so when we see SSH, we will know it means Silver Spangeld Hamburg.

Thanks for your help.

I noticed the OEG, but I didn't notice an OEGB abrev.-Old English Game Bantam

Also there are color abreviations as well, like BTW, BTB, and so on. Not sure of others, but I would imagine there are more!

BTWJ (black tailed white japanese) and I always add a "B" for bantam but they only come in a bantam.

BSL (black sex link)

DON'T forget, if you could copy and paste it would make it a longer list and I wouldn't have to keep adding them. I don't want BYC to get mad at me.

 

[hypnofrogstevie]

ES= evil silkies?

MFD = millie fleur d'uccle
PD = porcelain duccle

What can be abbreviated for serama or sumatra?

 

[luvmychicknkids]

I want to know the abbreviation for Leghorns. Is it the color plus LH, such as WLH? I just always end up having to type it out.
