Excessive Soaking??

[Pancake's Momma]

So my sweet noodle child Pancake has been soaking a lot in her water dish the last few days. I haven't really seen her come out except yesterday when I picked her up to hold her. She did this about 2 months ago when I first got her, but it was because she was readying to shed. This time however, she is showing no signs of shedding soon, (pink belly, blue eyes, ect.). I've also checked for other reasons why she might do this. Her temps seem fine tho (85 high and 80 low), as well as her humidity (65-50), she also has plenty of hiding places, and I have checked thoroughly for mites, though I have found none.

Before she started hanging out in her water dish, she would pretty much always be either in her hide, or around her water dish being pressed between it and the glass and curling over to her plant and heat lamp.

I have no idea why she would be soaking now, but she seems pretty chill in her dish. It's fairly large, and she has lots of room to soak, move around, and so on. Sometimes she has her head up and resting on the rim, while at other times she is completely submerged, only putting her head up every few minutes to breathe. A lot of the time tho she will only have her nose and/or the rest of her head just barely poking out. And again, I have checked for mites, but she seems completely clean.

Oh, not sure if this effects anything but she is about 5 years old and almost exactly 3 ft long. She is also a very picky eater, and it's been about 2 months since she's eaten but she's not eating the rats I've supplied her. I don't think she's loosing weight however, so I'm not too worries about that. On that note, she seems to be perfectly healthy with no problems to speak of. There are no other snakes in the house (two crested geckos tho, also perfectly healthy), but we do have two cats and a kitten. None of them can get to her cage however, and I have never observed them interacting with her (or attempting to) when she's in her cage.

If you need, I can supply pics.
