Albino camels

I have a female albino camel, two female calves out of the former and a female calve from a one of the Albinos daughters. So put simply I have three generations of camels, the albino and her progeny. I believe albinism is recessive but would like to try and breed another albino. I also believe that the albino female won’t have albino progeny but if I was to cross a male and female from her the chance would be 1 in 4 of gaining albino offspring.

Questions:

Is the statement about crossing brother/sister true?

Would a son/daughter cross be the same?

If I crossed a forth generation male with a second generation female, what would the result be?

Regards
