An animal giving birth to a different class of animal.

Are you saying you'd believe it was magic?

Would giving birth to a different species contradict it?

Children are the same species as their parents (barring bizarre hybrids like ligers and tigons). If you think that the theory of evolution says otherwise then you haven't even reached first base of understanding the basics of the theory.

Any fertile offspring is always the same species as the parents.

I'd believe it went against the foundations of what the TOE says (and modern genetics as well).

"Would giving birth to a different species contradict it?"

For an animal? Yes. Saltation has not been observed; it is not part of the TOE.
