    Is he a normal?

    I purchased him from a Petsmart under their vague 'fancy' brand, but he just looks like a normal to me. I'm not super versed in spotting morph differences though, unless its very obvious. Any help would be appreciated.

    Here are more images of him. What is the difference between a phantom and a mojave? They look the same to me.

    Seconding Phantom. If you'd posted photos of this guy saying he was a Mystic (essentially a line of Phantom), I'd believe you.

    Mojaves tend to lighter over all, with more blushing, than Phantoms/Mystics. There can be dark Mojaves and lighter Phantoms, but the lightness and blushing tend to be a good starting point. May be more obvious as your little buddy gets older.

    Aside from the color, Phantom tends to have a slightly different shape of keyholes, and yours seems to fit Phantom just a big better in this regard too. They are very similar though, and allelic (part of the blue-eyed leucistic complex).
