Russian Tort Escape Attempt (Female)?

[grogansilver]

Here's my biggest Russian female tortoise i just acquired she always was the slow quiet type except for today shes been running around trying to escape all day! It look like she was on LCD no joke she didn't even care that I was standing there! but I caught her! Could this be that's she gravid ready to lay eggs and is on the move? I have read about females doing this.
