I have noticed a lot of abreviations and terms used, that as a newbie I'm totally confused of the meanings too.
What does ?
'CB' mean and the digit that follows?
Thanks to anyone that helps me out, sorry if I seem dim. |

| 'CB' means "Captive Bred", usually followed by the year :) So CB12 means captive bred in the year 2012! You sometimes see WC (Wild Caught) and a few others but they're less common. |
