what came first the chicken or the egg,and why do u think so?

The egg must have come first.\nLiving things evolve through changes in their DNA. The chicken evolved from the non-chicken through small changes caused by the mixing of male and female DNA or by mutations to the DNA that produced the zygote. Prior to that first true chicken zygote, there were only non-chickens.\nSo the egg came first.

The egg came first, from something that was close to, but not quite a chicken. What came out of the egg was a mutation, also known as the first chicken, or at least close to one. Since it was able to successfully breed, its mutated genes were passed on, and much later on, chickens were able to dominate, while their earlier ancestors became extinct...

if u believe in evolution...then the egg...because it came from something that resembled a chicken but then transformed into a chicken\nif you believe in creation (such as myself) then the chicken...cause God made the chicken on that certain day!

Reptiles were laying shelled eggs for millions of years before some of them evolved into birds - and chickens came even later than that. So, by the time the first chicken laid the first chicken egg, eggs were already ancient. If your question is supposed to pertain only to chicken eggs, then obviously a species and its reproductive cells evolve simultaneously. Neither of them can exist before the other.

deffo the chicken, a genetic mutation from an earlier egg laying species will have created the first chicken and that animal will have passed on the genes.\nexactly the same way we were created!\nbut then again the chicken would have been inside the egg so the answer is both!

well it really depends on your religion. If you believe in God and that he created all things in the beginning, it would be the chicken because he created the animals first. If you don't believe in God, then there's really no answer unless the chicken slowly evolved to be an egg breeder, so that means teh chicken came first

Well, if we're going by the Theory of Evolution, the egg.  As the chicken's ancestors were slowly evolving to the current form of chicken, the last one who's DNA was  99.9999999999999999999% similar to the modern chicken layed an egg which contained 100% chicken.  So, the egg came first.

I solved this one a while ago.  I always want to look at the revolutionary stand point.   We look at the species of chicken. The revolutionary mutation that made the chicken a chicken came not from the other species that the mom was, but developed in the egg.  So the first chicken( chicken) came from an egg, and that egg came from some other species.  so the egg came first.

The egg came first.  At some time in the evolutionary development of the chicken as we know it, there was some previous creature that was not quite a chicken.  Let's call this a "proto-chicken".  In the ovary of the proto-chicken, which is always subject to some small amount of mutation, it carries all the genes that would make a proto-chicken, but it gets mutated to form what we think of as a chicken.  The egg is laid, and when it hatches, it will become a chicken.  Thus, the proto-chicken which laid the egg is not a chicken, but the egg will produce a chicken, so the egg came first.

Haha. This is a question that seems to go on forever isn't it? Well...in Biblical terms, the chicken came first.

I think the chicken evolved from something else (or God created the chicken), and the chicken was made to then reproduce. And then from the reproduction came the egg. Because you see, a egg can come from a chicken, but an egg cannot be created without a chicken. A chicken can evolve from other animals, but it cannot come from an egg originally.

Which came first - the chicken or the egg? \n\n"The chicken" came first - in the sentence of the question. \n\nIf the question is phrased differently, the answer is different.

The egg.  It probaly evolved from dinos. Two types of dinos could have created the first chicken egg.

The Chicken.  the chicken was created by God's power.  The egg came second, from the first Chicken.

the hen came first because God made the animal and the animal layed the egg...that'a my theory :)

The chick is hatched before it becomes a hen, just as a person is a baby before he or she is an adult. I wonder if you meant to ask "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" I believe the chicken came first because it was created by God.
