if you belive a superior being created all life as it is than the chicken came first\nif you belive in evolution the egg came first(because the ancient reptile would have laid an egg which would then become a bird.)

We don't actually know. If the chicken came first, an egg was needed to hatch into that chicken in the first place. If the egg came first, a chicken would be needed to hatch an egg. There is no definite answer (yet anyway).

Congratulations!! You just paraphrased the age old question of who came first, the chicken or the egg!!\nI'm afraid we're not privy to the information you're asking for while we are here on earth.  I believe that is something we will find out once we are not here anymore.

All living things are created by God (or whatever higher power you believe in) so the chicken had to come first.  The egg is not alive yet.

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

Good question.  \n\nNow you tell me, which came first, the chicken or the egg?

God created the chicken first.  If you don't believe in God then it would still be impossible for the egg to have come first.

I've answered the exact same question before. The egg came first because there were dinosaur eggs before there were chickens. If you specifically mean chicken eggs, I'd say the chicken because:\nBible version: God made all the animals. He made 2 adult humans first so I guess he would have made the adult animals first too.\nEvolution version: Whatever the chicken was supposed to be evolved from, had an egg of it's own which came out as a chicken, only then were there chicken eggs because there hadn't been chickens to lay the eggs.

i actually know the answer to this question..i remember reading it somewhere..i just forgot where..anyway...the answer is the chicken came first for two reasons (based on your beliefs):\n\n1. you believe in god creating everything..therefore he created the chicken\n\n2. you believe in natural selection and evolution, so the chicken evolved from some other animal

Evolutionary theory seems to point toward the egg being first. All animals on earth mutated and evolved from the first life forms. It's likely that the first chicken as we know it today hatched after eons of genetic mutations and changes.

The chicken definitely came first when God created the animals and then the chicken layed the egg.\n\nOh, F.Y.I and P.S. to all you city dwellers:::\nChickens lay eggs whether there's a rooster present or not.\nHe hasn't got a thing to do with her egg production. His job is to FERTILIZE the egg before she lays it thereby creating a chick.

God created the chicken then the chicken had an egg.

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 first chicken was hatched from an egg of something that was not quite a chicken. That's evolution :-)

Actually this has a real answer. According to the book "Random Kinds of Factness: 1001 (or so) Absolutely True Tidbits About (mostly) Everything" by Erin Barrett and Jack Mingo the egg came first.\n\nAccording to their research chickens evolved from early Indochina birds called red jungle fowl. Mutations in the jungle fowls eggs produced things more like chickens...these bred with other bird causing more mutations producing todays chicken.\n\nSo the eggs have it!
