next time you goto Dennys or IHOP, order two liquid chickens, and see what they bring you.

Look the egg came first. The very first chicken hatched out of an egg. A chicken egg. either 2 different birds mated or it was a defect of some kind. No matter how it happened. The egg came first.

you sound so certain! If the egg came first, then what laid said egg?

how can you be certain the bird that laid that first egg wasnt already a chicken itself?

if the chicken was 'created' by a mutation in its mothers womb, then it could have been born without going through the egg stage.

is the shell of the egg formed by the core of the egg, or by the mother birds reproductive system?

if its formed by mothers reproductive system around the egg, then the first chicken would have been born without the shell, and the chicken would have come first

but if the shell is formed by the egg itself, then the first chicken in the womb would have formed the shell around itself, and you could agrue the egg came first

but since eggs that are not fertilized still have shells, I dont think its the egg that creates the shell, I think its the mother. So the chicken came first, born without a shell.
