Multiple Expressions of Recessive Traits

I was wondering if anyone knew which recessive traits could be expressed in the same animal at the same time, and whether any combinations seemed to be lethal?
(For example, what if you tried to get both Rainwater and Tremper albino to express by crossing two double-het animals)?

the only recessive traits that i can think of right being both expressed at the same time are:
RW patternless Albino
Tremper Patternless Albino (i wonder bout this one)
Blazing Blizzard
thats it i think but breeding a tremper to a rainwater would not be a lethal combination however... it may be very hard to distinguish what a double homo looks like..... plus it could lead to bloodline confusion later or down the line.

Lets not forget jungle and striped abinos, oh and giants as well, all of which are claimed to be recessive traits, and I believe they are as well. As for a Tremper X Rainwater cross, my question has always been, "How do you tell them apart?" That goes for any of the albino strains for that matter. I would rather dedicate my space and time into more productive morphs without mixing the albino lines, that is unless you are trying to prove one out as a seperate line! Then, sure, cross all you want.

Because I'm nuts

Everyone has a pet project. I want to create a homo-for-everything.

Actually, I think it would be a very useful animal. You could prove out all your female hets in one season with one male. You'd have to then breed to pure tremper or rainwater to figure out WHICH albino it was, if you weren't sure which it could be, though. Are Bells distinctive enough to be certain of, compared with Trempers and RWs?

I wonder what it would look like?
The motley/stripe combo in corn snakes suggests that you might just get an interesting mix expressing some of these recessives together.
