albino is simple recessive so you'd produce all normals 100% het for albino, when the hets reach breeding weight you'd be in with a fair chance of producing more albinos by breeding the visual albino back to the hets

bumble bee is a patel spider, rather than buyiong one bumblebee i'd say buying a pastel and a spider pair would represent better value, breedgin the two together would give you 25% normal 25% spider 25% pastel 25% bumblebee and whichever one was the male could be mated to as many females as you can find producing 50% fo the visual morph (either spider or pastel) with all females it's bred with. Not to mention the fact you'd still get a lump of change too compared with buying a bumble bee.

I thought you had already reserved/paid for /whatever your albino? I remember weeks ago you saying it was only waiting for it to feed.

Nah, then you'd get spider het for albinos.

Yes, any "interesting" breeding involving RECESSIVE genes takes multiple generations.

If you restrict yourself to the codominant-type genes (and Royals have LOTS) you can get results in the first generation... but you'll need the money to do it.

you *could* get an albino spider from an albino x spider het albino..but there's no guarantees..same with breeding a pastel x spider -- you *could* get a bumblebee but then again you may not, but at least from that pairing you'll get a few pastels and spiders..
