Our best answer to that question derives from evolutionary Biology. The chicken evolved from some previous species of bird which resembled a chicken but wasn't quite a chicken. The first chicken egg would have been laid by another species, which we might call a proto-chicken, therefore the egg came first. For those who prefer a biblical explanation, the chicken would have come first since God (as far as we can tell) initially created animals in their adult forms, not in the form of eggs or other immature forms.
the chicken. when god created the earth he put animals not eggs. therefore the chicken came firstAnswer:Evolution works in such a way that the traits leading up to "chicken -ness" can be present in both parents without them being (technically) chickens. When they mate the genes can recombine to provide the offspring (in the egg) with all the genes to be a chicken. So the parents are not technically chickens, the embryo is a chicken and grows to be a chicken. The chicken comes first. Yes this means the egg the first chicken comes from is not a chicken's egg. All eggs from the first chicken are then chicken's eggs.
By science the chicken came first because of evolving of a species into the chicken By science the chicken came first because of evolving of a species into the chicken
According to evolutionist theory, the egg came first. This is because the genetic mutation needed to create the chicken would have occurred in the egg before the first chicken hatched.
The traditional riddle asks, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" It's a philosophical question about causality and evolution, with no definitive answer. Some argue the egg came first due to evolutionary processes, while others believe the chicken must have existed first to lay the egg.
The egg came first because dinosaurs were laying eggs long before chickens existed.
the egg because dinos lay eggs
his philosophy was....the customer ALWAYS comes first!
chicken
personally i think it was the chicken ____________________ I disagree; eggs have been around since the days of the dinosaurs (or before!) while chickens are a relatively recent development. Please note that the question does NOT specify a "chicken egg".
It is the egg for breakfast.

It all depends on the question. If you mean, which comes first, then, according to all scientific knowledge on evolution, the egg came first. There had to be a progenitor species that laid an egg. And that egg incurred a small mutation that resulted in a new species equivalent to the chicken. Then, the new chicken species hatched from the egg.
According the the theory of evolution, chickens must have evolved from some earlier species, and as a result, the first chicken egg was not laid by a chicken, but by some precursor species. Thus, the egg comes before the chicken. There is, of course, an alternative view. If you prefer a creationist belief system, then God created chickens first, and eggs came afterwards.
FACT: The egg did come first. & no one, or no thing laid the egg. God put it on this earth just like he put you and I on here.Answer:Evolution works in such a way that the traits leading up to "chicken -ness" can be present in both parents without them being (technically) chickens.

If you think carefully about it, chicken comes first. An egg would not be hatched if, there was no warmth. A chicken sits on the egg before it can hatch. I dont reckon there was any incubator long time ago. Sun does not provide the extra warmth needed for an egg to hatch. haha tricked you. If you believe in God, then chickens came before the egg.
neither; prehistoric birds eventually became all types of birds, including chickens
