The egg, by many centuries. Dinosaurs laid eggs long before chickens existed.
The chicken or the egg causality dilemma is commonly stated as the question, "which came first: the chicken or the egg?" The dilemma stems from the observation that all chickens hatch from eggs and all chicken eggs are laid by chickens. "Chicken-and-egg" is a metaphoric adjective describing situations where it is not clear which of two events should be considered the cause and which should be considered the effect, to express a scenario of infinite regress, or to express the difficulty of sequencing actions where each seems to depend on others being done first. Plutarch posed the question as a philosophical matter in his essay "The Symposiacs", written in the 1st century CE.
The egg came first. Animals that are not chickens laid eggs long before chickens evolved.

It is a philosophical question without a definitive answer. Some believe the egg came first, as mutations in the reproductive cells of an earlier species led to the first chicken egg. Others argue that the first chicken must have hatched from an egg, so the egg came first.
I think the egg came first-not nessacerikly a chickens egg but an egg may have come first I think the chicken came first because, the chicken evolved from soemthing that wasnt a chicken and once it was a chicken it had an egg. but the egg the chickn came from had a chicken in... im confused This is one of those questions that has been debated for years. We may never know the answer...or perhaps we now do. In 2006 a geneticist, philosopher and chicken farmer say they have the answer. It was the egg. See link.

The egg came first. The first chicken would have hatched from an egg laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken yet, due to gradual changes over time in its genes.
The animal came first because eggs are a reproductive structure produced by animals.
