Leap Day Birthday

The chances of being born on Leap Day is 1 out of 1461. So, are the chances of a set of twins being born on February 29th  higher?  Personally, I'm not sure, but I think it's pretty darn amazing.  My gg grandmother and her fraternal brother were born on February 29, 1888. A passing photographer was so taken with the idea of twins being born on leap day, he took their photo. Unfortunately, I don't possess that photo.
I remember my grandmother saying her mother only celebrated her birthday every four years.
