What was first the chicken or the egg ?



Answers:
was it worth it...?
impossible for anyone to give a correct answer because no one knows..

however i believe that by the theory of evolution the egg would have come first

because lizards were on the earth before birds.

it is often believed that lizards evolved from birds (archaeopteryx fossil) and since lizards lay eggs it is clear to me that the egg MUST have come before the chicken

wat would have happened is the lizard would have had a genetic mutation giving it say feathers
then by natural selection if the mutated lizard survived the chances are that its offspring would also have the mutation this would happen over millions of years then eventually after hundreds of mutations a CHICKEN would have hatched out of the EGG

i hope this answers your question

look at the archaeopteryx fossil (the top picture)at: http://www.dreamworlds.org/fossils.htm...
The egg.all the way. Because something layed it and then it became a chicken instead of what it was supposed to be. jk i dont know
The chicken. God created chickens before the eggs
The chicken was first.. it evolved. and hatched an egg. check out chicken legs.. they are lizard like.. nuff said.. no more chicken or egg questions! Argh!

yawnnnnn!!!
neither. they were both programmed into the Matrix at the same time by the Architech.
The Chicken. God created the chicken first. if he had created the egg first there would be nothing to sit on it, therefore no chickens.
there was neither chicken or an egg god created both a chicken and the hen
There is no exact answer BUT there is definitely a WRONG ANSWER.

The possibilities are:

1) God made few chickens alone.
2) God made few chickens w/ some chick/s.
3) God made few chickens w/ some chicks and egg/s.
4) God made few chickens some egg/s.

BUT.

IT CAN NEVER be egg first because nothing will hatch it.
Maybe it was the egg as two different types of birds could have mated to create what we call a chicken!
Egg, 'cause, Who made the chicken?, so, was the egg first and 'cause the cells combined themselves and formed the egg and was evolucioning until to form the chicken into the egg
Nickey has the best answer(beat me to it). Egg wouldnt
hatch without the chicken. The chicken evolved from some other animal.
whatever you order first
As many other things, they both appeared at the same time when Universe was created.
Mostly around the world, people tend to have eggs at breakfast, but chicken at later meals. So I think that indicates the egg comes first
I heard on the tv the other day that scientists had discovered the answer to this and that in fact the egg came first.
erm well i fried an egg at 2pm and then ate chiken for dinner.

so the egg was first.
