Given that A = normal coloring and a = albino coloring an albino recessive mother is aa and with normal coloring the father can either be AA or Aa. If the father is AA then all of the children would have normal coloring. If the father is Aa then there is a 50% probability of a child with normal coloring and a 50% probability of an albino child. Therefore the father must be heterozygous for the trait.Bloom's
