Here is info from one source:
When both parents carry the gene and neither of them have albinism (carriers), then there is 25% chance that the baby will be born with albinism. This type of inheritance is called autosomal recessive inheritance. On the other hand two people with albinism will not automatically produce an albino child although the risks are several times higher. Therefore in conclusion researchers say that the disease is a mystery and more research has to be done in this area to completely understand it.

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.
A couple where both the man and woman are albino decided to have children. Remember that albinism
is inherited as a rare autosomal recessive trait. To their surprise their first child had normal skin
pigmentation. They eventually have two more children and they also have normal skin pigmentation. What
is the most likely explanation for this observation
