I did the math and here is how it works out.

If you breed 2 snakes that are both het for same 4 recessives:

single expression 23% chance (6% for each trait)

double expression 21%

triple expression 5%

and the Quad comes out at .4% (like winning the lottery)

but that also comes out to be the same odds that your normal lookers will be het for nothing.

There is about a 50% chance that each egg will express something.

Hope this helps.
