Midrash for Menachot 163:3

אמר ר' אמי המתפיס מעות מעשר שני לשלמים לא קנו שלמים מאי טעמא דלא אלימא קדושת השלמים למיחל אקדושת מעשר שני

And in respect of peace-offerings [this is derived] from the expression 'there' stated [in connection with peace-offerings] and also in connection with the Second Tithe. Then it follows, as peace-offerings are not of the same kind as Second Tithe, so the [bread of the] thank-offering may not be from that which is the same kind as Second Tithe;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' So that any Second Tithe wheat, even that which was bought with Second Tithe money, may not be used for the thank-offering. But he may buy with Second Tithe money wheat expressly for the thank-offering. V. p. 494. n. 5.');"><sup>5</sup></span> thus excluding wheat bought from Second Tithe money<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For Second Tithe purposes but not for the thank-offering.');"><sup>6</sup></span>

Sifrei Devarim

"sheep and cattle": Does the Paschal offering not come from lambs and kids? If so, why "sheep and cattle"? Sheep for the Pesach offering and cattle for the festive offering (chagigah), and to compare all that comes from sheep and cattle to the Pesach, viz.: Just as Pesach is a mandatory offering and comes only from chullin (non-consecrated) animals, so all mandatory offerings must come from chullin.
