Reference for Bekhorot 35:43

מאי טעמא דרבי מאיר

But where the priest has nothing In its stead, it is not so? - You might have thought that the reason of R'Jose was because he held that if you make him liable for the priest's gifts he may come to shear and work [the animal], even where the priest has nothing in its stead.
