They're extremely subtle, but they become a little more obvious when you put one next to a normal.

Anything in particular to look for? Eye color, belly, pattern? In the pics that I have seen, there have been not stand out characteristics that I can see.
I'm sure Anthony McCain has a good list of markers to look for on a mystic. As far as what I've noticed, generally there is a lighter color in the pattern, heavy flaming, a mojave like pattern, and at least one or two of those little floating doughnuts in the pattern. The belly is pretty faintly marked.

I had to ask, because I have an 09 ch female that looks amazingly like the mystic that you posted. I'm not one to jump to conclusions about ch normals being something their not, so I wanted to get some more things to look for. Flames, belly and color are right, but will have to check out the pattern again. Oh, and I guess I will have to breed her with a mojave for her first year too! Thanks again for the help.
