Is my turtle pregnant?

We found a turtle on the side of the road, I’ve had one every year for three years. We just found this one, so we brought it home to let it enjoy our pond. I was making my way to the pond when I saw that it was out of the cage/pond. I picked it up and it hissed at me, it’s a boxing turtle. Not even sure if it’s a boy or girl, but very fat and heavy. So, I don’t really know if it is. But there is black on the bottom of it’s shell, and it’s about 12 years of age.
