I wasn't able to find much. There was probably a good deal of variation, just as there was a range of treatments of slaves in general. Since an albino African is still distinguishable in other characteristics, many of them may have been treated as any other slave. Other owners may have given some special treatment to one who seemed to share their color. Here are a couple of anecdotes from a website dedicated to albinism and vitiligo: http://www.zebracorn.com/history.htm

American slave masters did not want to allow children on plantations.....kept them as circus freaks...this would keep slaves from realizing that they are not so different from whites...American slave owners were scared of rebellion and did not understand the reason for albinism...albinos defined as freaks would keep African slaves from using them as a vesicle of equality. African Americans would be brainwashed that albinos were cursed by god
