Have an X-ray taken of the tortoise to see if there are any eggs inside her.

What makes you think she is due to lay eggs? Has she been with a male? Has she ever laid eggs in the past?

@zovick yes she was with a male recently and she laid eggs in the past with her previous owner
Then the best thing to do is to have an X-ray taken of her to see if there are any eggs present. If you don't do that, you will just have to watch the tortoise for a couple of months to determine when she attempts to dig a nest.
