But what did that chicken come out of?
I think that this is a question that only Sark can answer.

ok - if we are going to look at it from a genetic point of view rather than a culinary one i say that the egg came first. Creatures were laying eggs way past before the chicken evolved from another bird like creature.
And if we are specifically meaning chicken and chicken eggs, then from an evolutionary point of view something that was 'not quite a chicken' laid the first freak aberration that was a chicken egg, so it's still the egg. but is a 'chicken egg' defined by what laid it or what hatches from it. I would say that, in order for there to be a 'chicken egg' there must have been a chicken to lay it, in which case the chicken came first. A chicken egg would be the egg that hatches a chicken. The egg that was laid by the first chicken would be a chicken's egg - which would be the first chicken egg which was also a chicken's egg - but not the first chicken egg.

A chicken egg would be the egg that hatches a chicken.
This definition needs qualifying. IMO. I'm leaning towards Claw's position.

let's forget the chicken/chicken's eggs thing for a minute. I think 'chicken and egg' is just a generic phrase meaning "which came first, an egg laying creature or an egg", so should not be read to mean exclusively chickens and chicken/chicken's eggs. In order for there to have ever been any type of egg from which a creature hatched, there must have been an adult creature to lay said egg. Therefore, I still believe the 'chicken' came first. We really need a definitive answer on this thread from someone that was around at the time

How can you leave the chicken out of the equation?
The question has always involved a chicken not some undefined 'egg laying creature'.
Removing the chicken is radical step, I'm not sure you understand the implications. Anything could happen...

I agree with bolt.
The prechicken laid the eqq and the first chicken came out of it.
Evolution or some such...

Surely this bird like creature would have been a chicken ?

On reflection it has to be the chicken. An eggs just too fragile and cant be trusted to survive and not crack or split, its just to delicate to entrust with the beginning of such a popular foodstuff, if the egg cracked before it hatched its goodnight nurse. A chicken is the logical choice for the creator. its more durable...................Ask Dik9 he's seen the video
