The type of garter snake that I was interested in most seemed to have gone up in price a lot. Was a "sticker shock " to me to learn how much the garter I wanted increased in price since I first found these for sale on the internet. These garter snakes were $45 before and now these garter snakes cost $175.
Which seems unusual as most people complain about declining prices as more people breed their chosen species.
Just wondering, are garter snakes gaining popularity in general and thus more demand then supply?. OR maybe supply has gone down and demand has remained the same. This is the logical assumption when I see a steep price increase.
