Garters at our local expo :-)

[Bay_area]

can someone please tell me why the California red-sided (infernalis) is so much pricier than the Oregon red-spot (concinnus)
is it because they're harder to get?
I've not seen them in the flesh and in pictures I cannot see that much difference between the two

Because happy garters come from California ...or was that cows...LOL!
if you have not seen the cheese commercials, you will not get the joke.
