I pick this lovely lady up at my local fish store last week. Have her quarantining in this temp tank set up with filter media from my cycled community tank with the intent to trial her there, but have this 10 gallon as a back up that I can do a full proper set up if she doesn't play well with others.
I tried to get some video of her from above and from the side. I compared her shape from the top to the body condition score chart I've seen shared. I don't think she's pineconing, but I'm not sure if her body shape is indicative of her being underweight or if she's currently bloated and I need to treat her with something. Currently feeding Omega One Betta Buffet Flakes, Bug Bites Tropical Formula for Small Fish, and One Freeze Dried Brine Shrimp that I have broken up.

Looks like bloat to me. Sheās swimming around pretty happily so I would just fast for a few days and then check her status.
Looks full of eggs to me
