None. Garter snakes give birth to live young. A female garter snake may give birth to anywhere from 3 to 80 young.
After mating, the female retains the developing embryos within her body, until they're fully developed. Each baby is ejected or 'born' from the cloaca - the ventral opening to the reproductive organs.
This is the snake that has made Manitoba's Interlake region world-famous for snake-watching! Some snake dens (or hibernacula, singular = hibernaculum) contain 10,000 garter snakes each winter. In spring their mass emergence creates an awesome natural spectacle The chances of a snake reaching 12 years of age are less than 1 in 5,000.. that is the best i got. you could also always say too many to count!
Yes. Any type of snake will bite if it feels threatened. Garter snakes do have venom but it is very mild and they do not have well-developed fangs to help deliver it.
Garters were long thought to be nonvenomous, but recent discoveries have revealed that they do in fact produce a mild neurotoxic venom. Garter snakes are nevertheless harmless to humans due to the very low amounts of venom they produce, which is comparatively mild, and the fact that they lack an effective means of delivering it. They do have enlarged teeth in the back of their mouth, but unlike many rear fanged colubrid snakes, garter snakes do not have a groove running down the length of the teeth that would allow it to inject venom into its prey. The venom is delivered via a duvernoy's gland, secreted between their lips and gums. Whereas most venomous snakes have anterior or forward venom glands, the Duvernoy's gland of garters are posterior (to the rear) of the snake's eyes. The mild poison is spread into wounds through a chewing action. The properties of the venom are not well known, but it appears to contain 3FXT, commonly known as three-finger toxin, which is a neurotoxin commonly found in the venom of colobrids and elapids. A bite may result in mild swelling and an itching sensation. There are no known cases of serious injury and extremely few with symptoms of envenomation.

Many species lay eggs. Only one venomous species is possible and that's the coral snake.
in many gartens, woods, damp places, practically anywhere.
A pacific rattler can have 4 to 25 eggs in which an average of 7 to 10 live. :(
The Anaconda (eunectes murinus). There are many snakes that could be found in the wetlands, such as nothern water snake, cottonmouth, diamondback water snake, garter snakes.
20 - 50 eggs
Many snakes have red stripes. In the northern U.S and Canada, the most common are the King snake, the coral snake and several species of garter snake. Note: only the coral snake is venomous.
Garter snakes can be very aggressive but they are not dangerous. I've been bitten many times. If you are bitten just clean the wound (you probably won't even need a bandaid) and drive on.
Garter snakes could have as little as three babies, or as many as 80. Some have given birth to 98 individuals at once!

There's no such species as a horse snake !
