(pied het albino for example). so basically double het to double het is needed to get the first visual double recessive, and once you have that it all gets very easy and you can produce more of them with really great odds.
You'd be wrong there, albino het pied to pied het albino will still give 100% het pieds or albino with the possibility of visuals and non visuals.
The actual best pairing would be albino pied to albino pied.
