A matter of perspective.

By evolutionary theory, the egg came first from something that was almost, but not quite, a chicken.

By creationism, the chicken was created by God, and thus eggs came after that.

According to evolutionary Biology, the egg came first. The first bird that could be classified as a chicken would have evolved from a different species through the process of gradual changes leading to genetic mutations, making the egg laid by this bird the first to contain what we would recognize as a chicken.

Maybe you aren't asking the right people! I for one can answer this question! The egg came first, as two birds (just say an ostrich and an emu?) could have mated and the emu could have laid an egg which made a chicken! The egg came before the chicken, now you know the answer too!

Who came first !! The chicken or the egg?

the egg came first because where are you going to get the chicken if their is no egg... you can't get a chicken out of thin air ...you need a egg to get the first chicken.... then that chicken lays a egg ...then that one does , then the next and so on...the earth's matter made up the first egg....kill the first chicken...you'll still have a egg to get another chicken...kill the first egg.... chickens would cease to ''egg-sist''(exsist).The egg came first from another animal that adapted into the chicken. Kind of like how humans came from monkeys.

What came first chicken all the egg?

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.
