Using the name American Blackbelly immediately indicates that one is talking about a different breed than Blackbelly Barbados. I usually don't even try to explain to most people what Barbado is- it's more complicated than most want to know. I also think that American Blackbelly would include Canada- indeed, all of North America and even any that might have strayed to the south. Thanks for listening.
