which came first? the chicken or the egg?

it's an unsloved mystery for me i had hired sherlock homes to solve this mystery but even he failed heeeeeee how was the joke hope you liked it and let the chicken and egg remain as a mstery to me all that matters is reply to one of my honest friends in my lot

Do you doubt the existence of Dinosaurs ?? All Dinosaurs laid eggs.....eggs came before the chicken. Tom

oh! this is avery very simple question . If u know the answer (since you hav asked us as to how we think ) then it is Ok . If u yourself do not know then the answer is in this following frame . just solve this and this is the answer. One tree is there . Ok , its leaves are moving . leaves are moving due to air. Ok. now U tell me leaves are moving due to air OR due to air leaves are moving . the answer to this is the answer to your discussion. How is it ?

I have always thought that the chicken came first. This is because, I believe in evolution, and the chicken would have evolved from some other breeds of bird, over time. They would then have produced eggs, to give rise to more chickens. There are many good reasons for either side of the argument though.

There is really no answer to this question.If you believe in the theory of evolution then it would probably be the egg.If you believe that God has made all the creatures on Earth,than it would be the chicken.

the chicken came first because God created the animals therefore the chicken was created. after that the chicken laid an egg then the egg was created.so the chicken was the first.

I really do think the egg came first. That makes more sense than a chicken just randomly appearing.

I have heard this before but it's a fun discussion :) Thanks for posting it. It's confusing. I thought God put chickens down here first and then they started laying eggs. But then everyone knows a chicken comes out of an egg. I guess we will never know.

That's simple. It depends if you believe in evolution or the Eden story. It you believe in the Eden story, the chicken came first and was fruitful and muliplied and made the egg. If you believe in evolution, the egg came first and then becamed the chicken.

i really dunno, i guess when 2 different animals mated and had an egg and it was a chicken, and so the same 2 mated again and had the other chicken, then the 2 chickens mated and so on so there ya have it XD my screwed up chicken story! lol

Well being said that the chicken comes from the egg, and the egg is laid by the chicken it is obvious which gave rise to the other. But then again this is a very hard question that I would say would require some examination beyond just natural belief of which came first.
