The odds of both 50% hets being het are 25% (1 in 4). If you upgrade the male to a 100% het (as low as $350 now) you double your odds of having a het pair to 50% (1 in 2).

As pointed out you would still need to hit the 25% odds for each egg to produce a pied even if it turns out that both of the parents are hets. The more eggs the better chance of this happening – as long as both of your possible hets turn out to be hets.
