I think the egg. Evolution would morph and morph the ancestorial chicken. I think the first sign of the true "chicken" would be in he egg. Please tell me thru email, i don't really kno!!!

The egg came first, from something that was close to, but not quite a chicken. What came out of the egg was a mutation, also known as the first chicken, or at least close to one. Since it was able to successfully breed, its mutated genes were passed on, and much later on, chickens were able to dominate, while their earlier ancestors became extinct...

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.  :)

Which came first the chicken or the egg?\nThe egg is in the chicken and the chicken is in the egg.\nThey came as one.\n\nHeaven for one may well be Hell for another, and Hell for one may be Heaven for another.  Heaven and Hell make one Kingdom...\nThey came as one.\n\nYes and No...\nThey came as one.

If you believe that God created animals from scratch from the dust of the earth, then the chicken came first.  If you believe in evolution and the mutation of species over time, the egg came first.

Chicken. There was some bird that was not a chicken which was the first to evolve into a chicken. Thus the first true chicken occured before any true chicken eggs appeared.

the egg was a mutant that turned into a chicken, so the egg came first

Haha. This is a question that seems to go on forever isn't it? Well...in Biblical terms, the chicken came first.

Between Religion and Science, i believe that the CHICKEN came first. In relation to Religion, God created all the animals, including the chicken, for a specific purpose. Reproducing another kind of them, which in chickens, they lay eggs. In Science, we all knew in the theory of evolution, that all living things came from single celled animals, but evolved to multiple-celled animals eventually. But, it doesnt mean that being a single celled animal makes you an EGG because its already an animal, only one celled. So the answer is probably the CHICKEN.

my vote is for the egg...hmm but the chicken laid the egg so I change my vote to the chicken....but wait the chicken came from the egg so I vote egg...hmm but the chicken laid the egg so I change my vote to the chicken....but wait the chicken came from the egg so I vote egg...hmm but the chicken laid the egg so I change my vote to the chicken....but wait the chicken came from the egg so I vote egg...hmm but the chicken laid the egg so I change my vote to the chicken....but wait the chicken came from the egg so I vote egg...hmm but the chicken laid the egg so I change my vote to the chicken... ohhh I'm just confused!!!!!!!

For #2:\nFor the question, which came first, the chicken (hen) or the egg, the answer is obviously the egg! There were eggs of other species before there were chicken eggs. The first animal that we would today consider a chicken hatched from an egg that was laid by, and created by the breeding of two animals that were not quite what we would consider a chicken today. It's simply evolution, my friend.\n\nAs for #1, asexual reproduction existed before sexual reproduction, but the distinction between male and female must have come about together, otherwise how could there be more reproduction after that?\n\nFor #3, I'm assuming you mean human (homo sapiens) parents and a human (homo sapiens) baby. The first of our species, homo sapiens, must have been born to two parents who were not quite homo sapiens, but were similar to homo sapiens. Therefore, the first human would have been a baby (son or daughter). Again, simply evolution!

The egg. In general - eggs of various species- insects, dinosaurs, etc.  had been around LONG before chickens evolved.

My guess: chickens evolved from animals who breed via eggs, so eggs were first. Like there was one animal similiar to a chicken, that one day dropped an egg, and out of the egg came the first chicken. Or something like that...

if you belive a superior being created all life as it is than the chicken came first\nif you belive in evolution the egg came first(because the ancient reptile would have laid an egg which would then become a bird.)

Congratulations!! You just paraphrased the age old question of who came first, the chicken or the egg!!\nI'm afraid we're not privy to the information you're asking for while we are here on earth.  I believe that is something we will find out once we are not here anymore.
