Well usually line breeding refers to a parent x offspring pairing. If you bred a double het albino/pied to an albino, for instance, the only visual morph you could produce would be an Albino. You would end up with:

Albinos
Albino Het Pieds
100% Het Albinos/50% Poss Het Pieds
100% Het Albino


You would need to breed double het x double het siblings (inbreeding) to have a 1 in 16 chance of producing albino/pieds. The offspring would be:

Albino/Pieds
Pieds
Albinos
Albinos 50% Het Pied
Pieds 50% Het Albino
50% Het Albinos
50% Het Pieds
50% Double Het Albino/Pied
Normals

If you wanted to avoid inbreeding you can produce your own double hets and hold back all the females then purchase a double het male from a different breeder.
