The chicken. When we were all primortal ooze, we transformed from one-celled organisms into living things (unless you beleive in god, cough cough) with brains that breath and eat, etc. It just wouldn't follow the pattern if the chicken egg came before the chicken.It just happened to be in the Chicken's dna cycle after they were created. That's my opinion at least. what about you?

A nonchicken laid a mutant egg, which hatched into a chicken. The egg came first.

I don't think multiple celled organisms would evolve into an egg...but.....how could the egg layed be fetilized? hmm.... sweatdrop

the chicken... simply because GOD created all animals.... THEN told them to be fruitful and multiply

[Mistress DragonFlame]

The micro organism came first. It split, and split until it evolved into a complex organism enough to form an egg. So the egg came second. 3nodding

But, the first chicken came from the egg. It had to have evolved until it was determined into a chicken. The egg came before the chicken. xp

i think maybe it was both...oh but that couldn't work could it? i'd have to go with egg on this one, the first chicken had to come from somewhere, though it would have taken many many millions of years to become what we know as a ckicken today ^^

taking this litterally:
a chicken is a modern bird.
Dinosaurs and other organisms laid eggs long before chickens (no one specified it was a chicken egg)
thus the egg came first.

An egg and a chicken are both in bed, the chicken smoking a cigar.

The egg frowns and says, "Well, I guess we answered that question".

[Alexandra Trannyth]

That all depends on whether or not you consider the precursors to modern day chickens to still be chickens. If you do, the chicken came first. If you do not, the egg did. Muah. wink

Chicken: Bah?
God: Cluck!

Haha! Somebody else shares my thoughts on this one.

The egg came first. Some animal cross-bred or somthing and then the eggs came out.

[[unmentionable]]

the egg. dinosaurs ayed eggs. At least, some did.

[Daumier]

The chicken. Lets say for the sake of the argument, chickens are a direct decendant of dinosaur. When the dinosaur laid the egg, it was a dinosaur egg. But the chicken was inside the egg. The changes in gene structure for evolution occur in the chicken itself, not the egg. An egg is not a chicken egg unless it comes from a chicken. Therefore the chicken came first.
