What came first, The Chicken or the egg?

Only you can decide ;)

been done twice already

[Ninastar]

I actually dont know.

[30stone]

The egg.

[LemonJam]

The chicken, the egg couldn't have survived without something to warm it.

And I doubt humans were a foetus when they first arrived, they wouldn't have survived, right?

[30stone]

How could a fully grown Chicken just appear it has to come from another species which would have started as an egg.

Chickens are related to t-rex to. So evolution or somthing maybe.

None. It evolved over thousands of years inside the egg, each time a tiny tiny tiny bit more until it got from what it was to what a chicken is

if that makes sense?

[Dom:D]

The egg!

You could argue that with any animal, not just a chicken. an egg/foetus or whatever wouldn't be able to survive without it being nurtured by a mother.

Why is this in the Serious Debates:spin:
I think the chicken, which evolved so it could lay eggs:conf:

[ange7]

egg...

reptiles lay eggs and were around before chickens. Birds evolved from reptiles. One type of reptile evolved into something chicken like due to "natural selection" and those natural mutations in every generation made it more completive and thus more successful. This animal, over millions of years eventually became what we know as a chicken.

The question should be "what came first, the chicken or the chicken egg?"

[30stone]

What ange said.

And glenn a chicken wont evolve in its life, but it will pass on evolved genes.

[SiaSiaSia]

definitely the chicken

[Fom]

No it is 100% the egg, whatever the chicken evolved from laid an egg, and from that egg came the chicken. The egg was warmed by whatever the chicken evolved from, but we are talking like... this happened over million of years, not a chicken appearing in a random egg.

What we define as a chicken, would have come from a very very close relative to the chicken (probably extinct now) But I cannot see how the chicken can come first, all chickens come from eggs, chickens haven't been on the planet forever they have changed into chickens from other animals... from eggs.

[bananarama]

The chicken came first and got the eggs from its local super market.....

[Tom4784]

The chicken, The Micro-orgainsms probably didn't evolve into and egg. they evolved into a Chicken which then layed the eggs.

Then again i'm not very good at science so don't take my word for it.

Every living thing starts as a seed or an egg

The Egg McMuffin.

[Kornetto]

I personally think the Egg.
