Hey! Great to hear from you!

Feeding him a balanced diet is a great way to prevent pyramiding. All the vitamins and minerals work together to keep him healthy. That's why you don't want to give him just one type of vitamin when you are supplementing animals; you want to give him/her multivitamins so the body can metabolize all the vitamins better and more efficiently. IF he is healthy (getting enough nutrients), then he won't pyramid. At least, that's what I think.
