Females that are bound just look full in thier butt end. If you run your fingers down their belly you may be able to feel the mass(babies or slugs) which could be the cause of it.

As for what to do, you can try to massage the animal, swimming or soaking is another option, or you can ride it out. A certified vet with herp knowledge is also a good option.

Experience is and always will be your best teacher, and learning something new everyday.
