(a) We query Rav Ada bar Ahavah from a Mishnah in Kanin, which discusses a case where Rachel and Le'ah who had given birth, purchased a pair of birds between them. What is the case? What were the two birds needed for?
(b) What does the Tana rule in a case where the Kohen brought ...
1. ... both birds above the Chut ha'Sikra?
2. ... one above the Chut ha'Sikra and one below it?
(c) We query Rav Ada bar Ahavah from the latter case, as to why the bird that was brought below the Chut ha'Sikra should not be Kasher anyway, even it is was the Olah, like Rav Ada explained. What do we answer? How do we reconcile Rav Ada bar Ahavah with this Beraisa?

(a) The Mishnah also discusses a case where Rachel and Le'ah required six birds between them Why is that?
(b) Between them, they brought one Chatas and one Olah, one pair of unspecified birds and one pair of specified birds.

(c) On what basis are they Kasher?
(d) What will the two women be obligated to do to make up for the specified birds that are both Pasul?

(a) The Tana then discusses what the Din will be if the Kohen mistakenly brings two of the birds above the Chut ha'Sikra and two below it, without consulting the woman. What must he have assumed that would obligate her to bring two Chata'os and two Olos?
(b) What does the woman now have to do, assuming that ...
1. ... both Kinin comprised the same species (either pigeons or young doves)?
2. ... they comprised two different species? Why is that?
(c) How would the Din differ if, in addition, she specified which species she would bring for her Neder, but forgot what she said, assuming that ...
1. ... both Kanin comprised the same species (either pigeons or young doves)?
2. ... they comprised two different species?
