I just don't quite get the genetics. I know you can't just put an albino and a pied together and make them....but after that, i'm lost. You have to breed the babies back up to the mother or father? I dont know lol....
Yup, it would be a long process since you will need a breeding size female that carries both the Albino and Pied gene.
Your next step would be getting your Piebald.
Albino x Piebald = You would get all normal looking offspring that are double het for both Albino and Piebald. Raise up a female double het as your breeder and in the interim 18 months get a double het male, visual Pied het Albino male or visual Albino het pied to complete the parining. Or you can always produce both male and female yourself. =)
In order to get your Albino Pied you need to have both a male and a female that have both recessive genes.

So, by this do you mean...not that it's the plan, but if I paired an Albino and Pied...after the offspring got of age and size, I could just breed two of the offspring and get it?

In theory, Yes. I would stay away from breeding siblings to each other though. Breeding siblings back to their parents is a more common practice. You can reference the below link to view various opinions on inbreeding, line breeding and selective breeding

It's not JUST an Albino, but a beautiful one at that. I really like the yellows and clean white coloration. You definitely got one good looking boy :).
