In NC at aldi, cage free eggs are $4.50/do. and free range eggs are $5.30/do.

I get that price are regional, but there's got to be another factor for why the price is double what I pay for pasture raised eggs.

Because in Colorado, they can't sell the cheap eggs laid by chickens packed in cages, so the demand for the expensive eggs has gone up significantly, driving up prices. Also the cost of living in many parts of Colorado is higher than North Carolina.
