As I said if the parent is from RMJ then it is a MYSTIC, PERIOD.

RMJ NEVER got ANYTHING back from the original female Phantom (the one Ralph calls the million dollar momma). They parted ways over the phantom stuff BUT RJM didn't get any genetics back from Ralph he got the gene from me. John got a 06 Mystic from me on a trade , John bred the Mystic and sold stuff to Alan. The Phantom naming thing is not something I did, it is something others decided to do as they felt it was the same thing anyway based on phenotypical comparision only. I stuck to my guns and kept the Mystic (note the proper spelling) name as to differentiate from Ralphs line since the original Mystic was imported several years after that original Phantom female and likely came from a different source alltogether. Yes they likely will do similiar things . Are they the exact same things ? Probably but Who knows?



To me a Black Pastel and a Cinny aren't the exact same things , the Supers of the 2 genes can be put side by side and they aren't the same (one is more black than the other by far). They obviously are alleles of each other too because you can breed them together and get a Super (that too is a darker Super than a regular Super Cinny , why , because it has Black Pastel in it , again more proof in my mind they aren't the same). The Mystic and the Phantom may end up alot like that , to early to say really.
