The modern chicken was believed to have descended from another closely related species of birds, the red junglefowl, but recently discovered genetic evidence suggests that the modern domestic chicken is a hybrid descendant of both the red junglefowl and the grey junglefowl.
Since DNA can be modified only before birth, a mutation must have taken place at conception or within an egg such that an animal similar to a chicken, but not a chicken, laid the first chicken egg. --- But if the bird that laid that "first chicken egg" was "not a chicken," then how could the egg have been a chicken egg?

The compass rose has appeared on charts and maps since the 1300's, the term comes from the figure's compass points that represent the petals of a rose.

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.
first don't you mean CHICKEN? and the egg did dino's where laying eggs -4 chickens where
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 church came first before the chicken.
Technically the ancestors of the chicken came first.
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.
I will clear up the question:"What came first, the chicken or the egg?"You are correct, the chicken came first.
If you can tell me if the chicken or the egg came first, then I will tell you ! the chicken came first b/c if you need chckens to mate then the male fertilize egg so if ANY ONE SAYS THE EGG COMES FIRST EPIC FAIL ON THEIR PART.
There is much debate about whether the chicken or the egg came first, but both came before KFC.
