Commentary for Makkot 34:5

ומאי חומרא דבכור מתודה ושלמים שכן קדושתו מרחם אדרבה תודה ושלמים חמורים שכן טעונים סמיכה ונסכים ותנופת חזה ושוק

And what is the stringency of Bechor over Todah and Shelamim? That [a Bechor] is sanctified from birth. But, to the contrary, Todah and Shelamim are more stringent, as they require leaning, libation, and the waving of the breast and thigh.
