It is uncommon for a female to swell up with eggs when there are no males present but this does happen sometimes. She will be fat in the abdomen, despite pooing (rule out constipation) the absence of scales sticking out (rule out dropsy) and a day or two without food (rule out full stomach). Feed her a low protein diet and lots of frozen peas. Any female betta will produce eggs when carefully conditioned for two weeks beforehand and then placed in the 'chimney' in a spawning tank (a large glass jar so the male can see her but not get to her.) She should remain here for three days to ensure she is full of eggs and ready to mate before she is let out, as otherwise the male will attack her.

She will develop horizontal lines the length of her body when she is ready to be bred.

:EDIT: She will also have a white speck behind her anal fins (in the middle of her belly), this is called her ovipositor.

Female betta fish lay eggs. If the female has vertical stripes that stand out, she is going to lay her eggs soon.

If you would like to know what gender your betta is, look for the egg spot. (for females) It should be a small white cloud between the head and body. If your betta has one, it's a female. If your betta doesn't have one, it's a male.
