A new Mishna teaches us that when we slaughter from the side of the throat, the slaughter is valid. If one pinches the neck of a bird offering from the side, the slaughter is not valid. It is valid to pinch from the nape of the neck or slaughters from the throat. But if one pinches from the throat, the slaughter is not valid because the entire nape is valid for pinching and the entire throat is valid for slaughter. What is valid for slaughter is not valid for pinching and what is valid for pinching is not valid for slaughter.
We explore shechita of fowl and Halacha.
