Reference for Bekhorot 5:5
נֶאֱמָן הַכֹּהֵן לוֹמַר הֶרְאֵיתִי בְּכוֹר זֶה וּבַעַל מוּם הוּא. הַכּל נֶאֱמָנִים עַל מוּמֵי הַמַּעֲשֵׂר. בְּכוֹר שֶׁנִּסְמֵית עֵינוֹ, שֶׁנִּקְטְעָה יָדוֹ, שֶׁנִּשְׁבְּרָה רַגְלוֹ, הֲרֵי זֶה יִשָּׁחֵט עַל פִּי שְׁלשָׁה בְנֵי הַכְּנֶסֶת, רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, אֲפִלּוּ יֵשׁ שָׁם עֶשְׂרִים וּשְׁלשָׁה, לֹא יִשָּׁחֵט אֶלָּא עַל פִּי מֻמְחֶה:
A priest is trusted to say: "I examined this firstborn and it is blemished." Everyone is trusted regarding the blemishes of tithed animals. A firstborn that was blinded, or whose leg was cut off or leg was broken may be slaughtered by the word of three [regular attendees] of the synagogue. Rabbi Yossi says: Even if there are twenty-three people it can only be slaughtered by the word of an expert.
