Many have done it, but i recommend try doing it with unrelated pairs and the best part is you get all albino's.
I have done it w/100% hatch rate!
I have done it too with same 100% hatch rate.

I actually did it this year for the first time. I was very nervous about it but I ended up with 100% success and 8 perfect albinos.
Good luck

Genetically an albino from albino X albino shouldn't be any different than an albino from het X het. Take for example that the het parents could even be siblings of the albino parents. In that case no more inbred.
Now if there really are some examples of albino X albino producing worse results on a regular basis (doesn't sound like it so far in this thread) possible reasons might include albino females not making as good of eggs as non albino females but I don't see how it could be the genetics of the offspring them selves.
albino x albino works fine. just outbreed as much as possible. been doing it for three years with great results. kurtt d.
