The Gemara brings a third source to attempt to prove Rav Yosef's assertion that Sumchos holds one who eats two olive-bulks of forbidden fat (chelev) in a single lapse of awareness is liable for two sin-offerings, but this attempt also fails. A Mishna details four times during the year - the eves of the last day of Sukkot, the first day of Pesach, Shavuot, and Rosh Hashanah - when an animal seller must inform the buyer if its parent or offspring were sold that day for slaughter, due to high meat demand raising concerns of same-day slaughter. On these four occasions, the Sages also instituted...

Rav Hamnuna states in the name of Rabbi Shimon that the prohibition of oto v'et beno does not apply to consecrated animals (kodashim). This is based on Rabbi Shimon's principle that an invalid slaughter is not halakhically considered a slaughter (shechita she'eina reuya lo shema shechita), and since the meat of a sacrifice is not permitted for consumption until its blood is sprinkled, the slaughter itself is initially unfit. Rava challenges this using a text discussing various combinations of slaughtering consecutive sacrifices inside or outside the Temple courtyard (bifnim or bachutz),...

After the Gemara establishes the root of the debate between Rabbi Eliezer and the Rabbis regarding a koy, Rav Papa clarifies the specific type of koy they dispute concerning the prohibition of slaughtering a parent and its offspring on the same day (oto v'et beno) and the distribution of priestly gifts (matnot kehuna). He also explains that the Mishna's ruling—which prohibits slaughtering a koy on Yom Tov due to the uncertainty of whether its blood requires covering (kisuy hadam)—aligns specifically with the Rabbis' position. The Gemara then introduces three other opinions regarding the...

Daf Yomi for Women - Hadran
The Gemara discusses the prohibition of slaughtering an animal and its offspring on the same day (oto v'et beno). The Mishna presents various permutations of non-sacred animals (chullin) and consecrated sacrifices slaughtered either inside or outside the Temple courtyard, outlining the respective punishments incurred and the halakhic status of the meat. A braita derives from biblical verses that this prohibition applies to consecrated animals, and the Gemara subsequently demonstrates that it applies to non-consecrated animals as well. Since the laws of oto v’et beno are learned from...

Daf Yomi for Women - Hadran
If a bone is broken but the majority of its width is surrounded by flesh and skin, the animal is not considered a treifa—even if the break is above the knee joint (arkuva)—and the limb is not considered a limb severed from a living animal (ever min hachai). A case came before Rava where the bone was covered by a majority of "flesh" only when including soft sinews. Rava initially permitted this based on Rabbi Yochanan’s opinion that soft sinews are considered like meat for fulfilling the mitzva of eating the Pesach sacrifice. However, Rav Papa challenged this from Reish Lakish’s...

One may purchase eggs from a non-Jew if the seller explicitly specifies that they come from a particular kosher species. The Gemara asks why we cannot simply rely on the physical diagnostic signs of kosher eggs, which are: being pointed on one end and rounded on the other, and having the yolk (chalmon) on the inside with the albumen (chelbon, or white) on the outside. The Gemara explains that these signs alone are insufficient because certain non-kosher species (such as the crow) lay eggs that mimic these exact characteristics.
Regarding blood found in an egg, the halakhic status depends entirely on its location: depending on where the blood spot is positioned, one either removes the blood spot alone or is forbidden from eating the entire egg. The Gemara presents two conflicting traditions regarding which specific location (the yolk or the albumen) triggers the stricter prohibition.
The Gemara identifies the biblical source prohibiting the eggs of non-kosher birds, deriving it hermeneutically from the verse banning the "daughter of the ostrich" (bat ha-ya'anah), where the "daughter" is expounded to mean the egg of the ostrich.
