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 egg suggests evolution, as it formed and chickens sprang from it, while the chicken supports the theory of creation. God made all the animals, and whatnot. So it all really depnds on if you beleive God created the world or if you beleive we evolved.

it depends on if you have a chicken or not..if you do have a chicken already then the egg comes first if you dont have a chicken..then the chicken must come first.

The chicken. The Bible tells God created all living animals and then provided for them to reproduce. So the egg was how they reproduced.

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

Apparently the chicken came first.  Then the eggs.  According to Genesis anyway.

this question has been asked many times, not just throughout time but also many times just here on yahoo answers.  i say "egg"... for a thorough explanation you can look up my answers.\n\ni just find it very interesting that when asked in the "pets" forum, most people say something religious to support their claim that chickens came first, and on the "science" forum, more people say "egg" and support their claim with "science has proved...."\n\nmeh, science never really proves anything... but this one just requires a little thought about the true nature of the question.  it would be a little more difficult to answer if it was "which came first, the chicken or the chicken egg?"  but no one ever asks that question, so we're all safe.  whew.  :)

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

the egg. it was formed by organisms and eventually hatched.\n\ni first thought, well, if the chicken came first, it had to come from and egg, but then that egg would have to come from the chicken, then that chicken had to had come from and egg, and so on and forth

well it really depends on your religion. If you believe in God and that he created all things in the beginning, it would be the chicken because he created the animals first. If you don't believe in God, then there's really no answer unless the chicken slowly evolved to be an egg breeder, so that means teh chicken came first

Well, the chicken has evolved from a previous species. That species wasn't really a chicken, but it laid a mutated egg, which was a chicken. So, the egg came first.

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.
