As it is normally used, the term "F2 generation CB" would imply (or require) that BOTH of the parents were the F1 CB offspring of two WC adults. My interpretation is that BOTH parents must be CB to utilize the terminology correctly.
Once you breed a WC to a CB, I think you would have to go down one number in order not mislead people, or, to be truly accuarate, you must indicate (as I mentioned in a post above) that the resulting offspring are "the F1 CB generation from the WC male and the F2 CB generation from the CB female". To me, that makes it exactly correct and accurate, though some people might find it confusing. To keep it simple, I only say my animals are F whatever if both of the parents are CB.
