I’m a first time Mama to this darling and was wondering if I’m doing the right “parenting” to him/her.
I live in Manila, Philippines. Weather here is always hot. I give him daily 15-30 min luke warm baths in the morning near the window - where there is sunlight. Sometimes, I let him literally bathe under the sun for 10 mins for fresh air as well. I mist his home every now and then (atleast twice/thrice a day). I feed him twice a day with 2 pcs of Mazuri for breakfast and dinner and some Kangkong (water spinach) for “dessert”. His enclosure is never without water and some shallow pool. I’m using ReptiBark and some coco peat inside his cave. I also leave the Zoo Med turtle bone inside his home and occasionally sees him munching on it.
He is super active and is eating very well but I’m just worried about the pyramiding thing. Can someone tell me if his shell is pyramiding already? Thank you in advance?

I love the cute look he/she is giving you in the last picture! From what I can see, your tortoise looks pretty good for the most part. He/she is starting to have some very minor pyramiding, but nothing too bad. Please take a look at this caresheet:
