The first male a female breeds is usually the one that fathers the clutch, with multiple paternity clutches happening once in a while.
She may be building follicles, which is why she looks fatter, or she could be building up to ovulation. If by tomorrow she looks like she swallowed a small football, then she is ovulating and chances are the other male is the father. If she just looks a bit pudgier, then she is likely building follicles, and your male may still have a chance.

Good luck!
