ok so my seedling is white and purple with no green anywhere and a slight yellow on the two leaves. they already sprouted their fourth leaves and they are a faint yellow. what does this mean? are they albino?

I highly doubt it. But if it is, it won't survive. Plants need chloryphyl, and that provides most of the pigmentation.

I had a seedling start out that way and i just treated it like any other and after a little while it started to turn green and then it grew normally with normal colors. Dont kill it just let it go and see what happens.
