how should i make my famale betta get full of eggs
 
I did mine by accident. I placed a male betta near her. And the room temperature was above 75F.

If shes not mature enough yet then nothing you do will "make" her full of eggs. If you want to attempt breeding place her near a male and condition both of them with high quality foods. Youll know shes ready when shes nice and plump and has a visible breeding line on her side. Most times she will also have her head lower then the rest of her body as a sign of submission. Theres a great article around here somewhere that gives info on betta breeding.
 
Go to the pinned topic in the betta gourami section. A couple of replies down there are about 6 good links that tells about everything. Including getting the female ready.
 
Healthy, mature, non-melano females are always full of eggs. What you have to do is get the female to ripen those eggs and then release them, which starts with feeding her lots of high protein (mindset her into thinking it is a time of plenty and her babies will have lots to eat, along with getting her into top nutritional condition for making lots of healthy eggs). Seeing a healthy, active male betta helps get those hormones going. Many of the females we breed never get plump and fat-looking and yet they are able to produce fertile eggs, just takes them a few days of feeling that need to breed to get them to produce their eggs.
