And dinosaurs laid their eggs in nests and took care of the eggs long before there were chickens.

So, the answer is that the egg came long before there were chickens.

Yushchyshyn say: The egg from the species from which the chicken evolved.

oikoσ say: The mutation that changed a jungle fowl into a chicken occurred in the germplasm of the parent jungle fowl. That made the egg in question a chicken egg because a chicken hatched out of it.

Edmur say: to be sarcastic.....i'm more knowledgeable than a chicken or an egg so....I obviously come first......lol.....

Elijah say: Neither really came first. Egg was laid by chicken, which hatched from egg, which was laid by parent, which hatched from egg, all the way back, gradually shifting to a bird completely different from a chicken as we know today.

Candice say: Evolutionists will tell you that a supposed proto egg came first & that this supposed proto egg was fertilised by a supposed proto rooster. But then we have to ask, where did the proto rooster & the proto chicken come from? & where did the thing that came before the proto rooster & proto chicken come from, & where did the thing before that, & the the thing before that, etc, come from? You see, it's never ending! Something has to have a cause, a first cause to be precise because we logically know that from nothing, nothing comes!
Now other evolutionists will say that the supposed egg came from a supposed bird that was not a chicken! Well then it can't be a chicken egg because animals create after there own kind. Humans dont give birth to cats, & cats don't give birth to humans, etc. Everything gives birth to things of there own kind. & then the first cause argument starts again because we have to ask where did this supposed non chicken come from & the one before that, etc, etc, etc?!
