What came first the Chicken or the egg.

This is a debate thread between the first chicken and the first egg to produce a chicken. An alternative debate is what came first the chicken or the chicken egg, but in my eyes a chicken egg is laid by a chicken so that solves that one. The essential principle is did a chicken-like creature mutate into what we know as a chicken or did an egg contain weird mutations that produced the first 'proper' chicken. Let the debate, begin!

No debate its the egg, you make it sound like the chicken mutated into something else after it came out the egg. It was a chicken as soon as the egg was laid, however what came first the chicken or the chickens egg is a bit of a trick question as by definition it has to be the chicken.

Depends how you define a chicken egg. Is it the egg which comes out of a chicken, or is it the egg out of which a chicken is hatched?

Depends what theory you believe. If you are a creationist then it was the chicken. If you're on evolutionist then it is the egg. Therefore it was the egg
But what came before the chicken or egg?

A different bird.
The Chicken came first. They did a study.
This has no answer. It proves the fundamental flaw with evolution. Creationism is the only right answer. Close thread.

The chicken always came first...

...much to the disappointment of the egg.
Both were engineered first.
The egg, dinosaurs and other species laid eggs before chickens even existed.
