<div><br>> The shlamim could be brought in the morning, and AFAIK it doesn't have to be done for the sake of a specific </div><div>owner. For all I know the BHMK could have slaughtered bulls all morning as shlamim, and made the meat </div>
<div>available to anyone who donated towards the cost.<</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> A korban musr be slaughtered, among other things, l'sheim ba'alim. The kohein need not know his identity -- he can do the avodah having in mind "I am doing this for the sake of its owner, whoever he may be"-- but there must be an owner, and he cannot be determined after the fact.</div>
<div> </div><div> </div><div><br>>> Bnei Yisrael brought the Korban Pesach the second year in the Midbar as well. At that time there were only</div><div> 3 Cohanim, Aharon and his 2 sons.<<<br><br></div><div>>Moshe was also a cohen, so there were four. But that doesn't really answer the question; four should</div>
<div> have been overwhelmed as easily as three.<</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> Moshe was only a kohein during the shivas y'mei hamiluim, which ended two weeks before erev Pesach. Had he retained the status of kohein, it would have been unnecessary to burn the chatas after the death of Nadav and Avihu, since there would have been a kohein, Moshe, who was not an onein and could therefore eat it.</div>
