Yes, she appears gravid, but that is not hard with varanids, they breed like flys. What is hard is the next step and that is getting good viable eggs. Then hatching them.

If you have good nesting, then there is no problem. if not, there are lots of problems and you will lose your female in short time.

I wish you all the luck and make sure there are places for her to lay her eggs. Best wishes
