Which came first: the chicken or the egg?

Its a secret.

The frying pan. And I honestly don't care what comes second as long as I have something for the damn pan.

The egg came first.

Specifically, relating to chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus), these were domesticated from the wild Red Junglefowl (Gallus gallus).
Since domestic chickens are a subspecies of Red Junglefowl, somewhere back in pre-history, a Red Junglefowl hen, laid an egg that when it hatched, had an offspring with a genetic mutation that lent itself to being domesticated.

The rooster came first. Men always cum first.

The egg. Dinosaurs already laid them.

The chicken. In order to lay an egg, you must have a chicken to lay it. And when an egg hatches, it doesn't turn into a chicken, it turns into a chick. Common sense. Does it really even matter???

It's been found that Chicken came first. The protein to make an egg is found in the chicken itself but not found in nature. But the organism was not chicken, it was some organism that had a mutation to enable it to lay egg

Actually both! Following to my sister's (FionnaCake) observation.

Is this that joke or you really want to know?

Joke: Don't know.

Real: It was the egg with the embryo inside it. The small white thing is the embryo. It eats the yellow part which is its food. It stays in the egg for protection. In a few weeks, it hatches into a chicken.

It's been figured out. Here's a video explaining it.

You need a chicken and a rooster to get a egg that has a chick within it so baffling ):

Ok, wait for it because im about to get alm technical. :)

the egg DID come first because before a chicken was a chicken it was something else that evolved into what we now know as a chicken today. That meaning, if its gradually evolving into a chicken, each new generation will be closer and closer as it hatches. Then eventually kne egg hatches and its our common day chicken.

Unless you dibt believe in evolution. In that case well....then that question will just screw with your brain.

Well, it depends...
