Congratulations, you have one of two situations:

1. Your female retained sperm from a breeding to a non-albino male - has she ever been bred to anything else?

2. You have two different strains of albino. Looking at what I presume is a photo of your male, I wouldn't be surprised if he turned out to be a Bell.

Normal het Tremper Albino and (possibly Bell) another strain of Albino.

They are 100% het for TWO kinds of albino.

To get visual albino offspring, you could:

Breed one to a known Tremper albino - you'd get normals who are guaranteed het Tremper albino and possible het "other" albino; you'd also get Tremper albinos who are possible het for the other albino strain
Breed them to each other - you could get Tremper albinos, the OTHER strain of albinos or Tremper/Other albinos. The only way to tell the difference between those is by breeding them to KNOWN Tremper or other strain albinos.

If I were you I'd pick up a female Bell albino and a female Rainwater albino to test out which strain your male is.

You CANNOT guarantee you can tell Bell from Tremper from Rainwater from combination albinos via the eyes. I know, I've heard some people say that the eyes will tell you the difference - I'm guessing Bell albino from your male based on a combination of the eye colour and the overall body colour - but it is not guaranteed.

The ONLY way to tell for sure is to test breed all albino-looking offspring to an albino that you know the parentage of.
