help! my condy is rejecting food

well the first time i had her i fed her the next day a silverside and she ate it fine a day or two later i saw she digested the spine... now the next time i fed her she did not eat the silverside.. she had it halfway into her mouth then in the morning i saw the fish whole laying on the floor.. now i fed her half a silver side last nite.. i this morning i saw it laying on the sand again.. she seems healthy to me she opens wide during the day and when i toss in the silver side she aggresively grabs it so any help would be appreciated

+1.

My condy would spit out anything much bigger than a large krill

Finger nail sized pieces of shrimp and fish work best.
