he may be going into shed
a lot of soaking can also indicate mites
if you see tiny black specks floating in the water bowl, it's the latter

I think you need to give him mite treatment
there've been a few discussions on mites and how to get rid of them:

Mites
Help Mites!
mites.

many of my snakes stopped eating when they had mites and I think it affects their ability to digest properly
I hope this helps
and good luck
