You are correct in all your assumptions. The only way you would produce any albino offspring from breeding a labyrinth to an albino granite is if the labyrinth was het for albino to begin with. And your calculations for breeding the offspring are somewhat correct too. If you bred two triple hets together you would get the following:

albino labyrinth granites

albino labyrinths 66% het for granite

albino granites 66% het for labyrinth

albinos 66% het for both granite and labyrinth

and normals that are 66% het for albino, labyrinth, and granite



Breeding albino double hets together woudl result in the following:

albino labyrinth granite

albino granites, 66% het for labyrinth

albino labyrinth, 66% het for granite

and albinos 66% het for granite and labyrinth



The only thing I would strongly suggest is to work the project in a way so that you can obtain unrelated offspring. You should try to avoid direct cross breeeding. From all I have researched the resulting offspring from siblnigs being bred together result in more slugs, stillborn and abnormalities as well as weaker animals that are more susceptible to diseases and ailments such as RI. Line breeding the offspring back to the parents is a little more effective then breeding clutch mates but once again should be avoided if at all possible. Hope this helps a little, and if anyone would like to add or correct anything feel free but I am pretty sure my calculations and information is correct. Todd
