there were probably eggs in existence before chickens. best of my knowledge dinosaurs laid eggs. so the chicken had to have evolved from some sort of egg laying creature therefore making the egg come before the chicken.

Ok here is how i look at it... We all know the theory of evolution right?.. That sumthing did not just appear it has some form of predecessor.
The way this works is that perhaps a few animals of a certain species is born with an adnormality. However, this adnormality may help these creatures live. One example of this is bacteria. Say if a bacteria is born and it is resistant to an antibiotic. This means that this certain bacteria will be able to live after being exposed to set antibiotic but the rest of them won't.
ANYWHO... this happened with the chicken in some form or another. Some predecessor of the chicken laid an egg that contained a certain adnormality that the chicken has and that was selected for at the time.
Thus, the egg of the predessor, or the egg in general...came first

The question that we ask in biology is this:
"Is an egg a chicken's way of making another chicken, or is a chicken an egg's way of making another egg?"

The problem lies not with the question, but the perception of the problem.
eggs(early chicken) + farm animal(adult chicken) are the same creature, just different parts of the lifecycle. To distinguish the two is to overlook that fact. What came first, the foetus or the person? they are one and the same!
no wait.. I am missing the point..

Well, are we talking chicken eggs, or just any egg?
'Cause dinosaurs had eggs way before chickens came along...
Why did the punker cross the road?

Can miles truly separate us from friends? If we want to be with someone we love aren't we already there? If there is someone willing to show, and there is someone willing to see; magic happens. This is whem humans are alive. This is when the wingless fly.

Most people have eggs for breakfast and chicken for dinner, so eggs come first.
Wait a sec, but you have dinner before breakfast, too, right? Ut oh...

A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as he could if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
