She could be, or she may be a little overweight.
If she is gravid, you likely have 3 maybe 4 weeks before she wqould lay her 2nd clutch.
They usually lay the second clutch about the time the first clutch hatches.

Still no pre lay shed, ate yesterday just fine… does this mean she’s not likely gravid or could there still be time left? Just wondering because I think most still eat up until their pre lay shed… she’s ravenous and is eating twice a week no issue. Thanks in advance!

As stated, she should lay around the same time the first clutch hatches, which is usually between 60 and 70 days after being laid. That's the timeline you're looking for.

Ohh okay thank you! Sorry I just don’t know the specific date from the prior owner and he doesn’t know. Ugh. He just said about 40-45 days ago. Thanks!

One of our gals double clutched on 8/26 (was not rebred but laid an additional 18 eggs anyway) and then went blue on 8/28; so, yes, they definitely can lay before shedding. She double clutched exactly 60 days from laying her first batch of 30.
I should mention, though, that she went off feed for 3-4 weeks prior to laying the second clutch.

I have one female I produced (now owned by a friend) that double clutches pretty much every year, without re-pairing.
