Birds actually go through the process of fertilizing an egg just like humans, except for birds this happens outside of the body whereas for humans it happens inside the body. So in reality, no actual 'sex' happens for birds...the male bird fertilizes the egg that the female laid, and the female sits on the egg while it gestates. \nGoodluck with that bird porn site, though.

It is thought that the hunt for eggs came first, with no association to the rabbit. Eggs were traditionally given out at the start of Spring in Egypt and Persia. Then, as children searched for the eggs, they flushed out rabbits and hence began the stories of the rabbits leaving the eggs.\n\nContinued at http://001egreetings.com/1F/D/AB/index.shtml

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

It was the chicken's day off!\nOR\nBecause chickens hadn't evolved yet

You mean ...what came first...Chicken or Egg...?

The egg came first, because before there were any chickens at all, there was the species that mutated/evolved into the chicken (some sort of dinosaur, no doubt). That species was invariably an egg laying creature, and therefore, there were eggs long before there were chickens.

I can't quite remember, which came first the chicken ---\n\nHatching:  generally when the hen sits on a clutch of eggs and the chicks begin to break out of the eggs - they begin hatching.\nIncubation:  the period of time from the laying of the eggs to hatching - the incubation period.  Most commercially produced chicks are hatched in an incubation oven which keeps the eggs at the most appropriate temperature.\nBrooding:  the chicks are known as the 'brood'.  When the hen takes the chicks out around the garden or area, she broods over them including at the sight of danger, when they hide under her feathers for protection.

since we all evolved form one celled organisms, which started in water, then we do come from fish. the "land egg" got us out of the water.

Interesting fact.  God did NOT create chickens!  They are a human creation.  A hybrid of 2 other types of birds.  They wanted to be able to combine the tastiness of one bird with the domesticability of another, and voila, they got a chicken.

1) Because they can? :^)\n\n2) Because they like to stir up debates between creationists and evolutionists.\n\n3) Because they think it is an unanswerable riddle when it isn't.\n\nIt is an interesting question but people really don't think it through enough to show just how interesting it is.  How you answer the question reflects on your belief system, your powers of deductive reasoning, and/or your sense of humor.\n\nIf you subscribe to evolution (as I do), then it's very simple -- eggs existed long before chickens ever did.  Fish lay eggs.  Amphibians lay eggs.  Reptiles lay eggs.  Dinosaurs layed eggs.  Prototypical birds layed eggs.  Early mammals layed eggs.  (Even current mammals called monotremes lay eggs).  So obviously eggs came before chickens by this line of reasoning.\n\nFollowing evolutionary theory, genetics, and the development of embryos, one might argue that again, the egg came before the chicken because the first chicken is a genetic mutation of two chicken like parents.  So, from this line of reasoning, you might, again argue the egg if you are talking about first chicken relative to the egg.  For the first chicken had to develop inside the egg as the offspring of two chicken-like parents.\n\nBut then I realized "Hey, how did the first zygotic chicken (fertilized ovum) get inside the egg in the first place?"  If the ovum was inside an egg shell with yoke and rooster sperm is added afterward, then the egg comes first.  But what if the the ovum is fertilized first, then encased in an egg shell?  Then would not the zygotic chicken come before the egg?\n\nA quick look on Wikipedia for bird reproduction indicates that the eggs are fertilized with sperm during the descent from the ovaries through the cloaca.  If this is the case, then, again, the egg comes before the chicken.\n\nSo, I forgot to add one reason people ask this question every six minutes:\n\n4) Because they have too much time on their hands. :^)

Actually, first came the rooster and the chicken. A chicken alone cannot lay fertilized eggs. It takes fertilized eggs to have more chickens and roosters.\n\nIf the egg came first, it would have died. There would have been no one to fertilize it, lay it, or hatch it. If a lone chicken, by some miracle had hatched from said egg, there would have been no roosters to fertilize more eggs, thus no more chickens or eggs.\n\nIf it is true that such an egg existed, that needed no care, fertilization, or hatching, we are degenerating rather than progressing. Our eggs are highly dependent in order to be of any use.

nothing, its just that its hatched by different kinds of chickens. that is it.thanks for the points!

well niether did... the ancient potatoe people came first and decided that they whanted to be a side dish. well they tried being a side dish with pork and fish and beef and watermelon (dont ask) and they decided that they would go so much better with some form of white meat. Well the potatoe people, or p.p. as i like to call them, got all of their most brilliant scientists together to geneticaly enginer a new species. Well they tried all sorts of things and finaly they came up with the idea of a chicken. they named it a chicken because on of the scientists, Who was afriad of almost every thing, first name was chicken. (he wasnt a scaredy cat because the purple water buffalos hadn't roamed acrost the moors of africa long enogh to find the giant mice and create the first cat like creature<he wore a hat> to battle the rodant vermine>) well anyways they didn't know weather to make the chicken first or the egg first. they argued over this for a long time when finaly this man named the colinal who wore this white suit all the time got fed up with the p.p's bickering and made both the chicken and the egg at the same time. Them he rounded up all of the potatoe people and slaugtered them, then he beat them and added butter to their remains. the colianal then became famous with his resteraunt= KFC

Science tells us that chickens evolved from non-chickens through small changes caused by the mixing of male and female DNA or by mutations to the DNA that produced the zygote ( egg). These changes and mutations only have an effect at the point where a new zygote is created. That is, two non-chickens mated and the DNA in their new zygote contained the mutations that produced the first true chicken.  \nSo i would this it's safe to assume that the egg came first.\n\nBest of luck to you.

scrambled eggs prove the existence of God...and that He does have a sense of humour.\n\nlight fluffyness that is delicious in the morning...and it came from a chicken's behind.\n\nta-da.
