Q: Who came first: Stalin or Trotsky?
A: Trotsky, of course -- always distinguished by his gait, which was somewhere in-between a walksky and a runsky.

Biblically the chicken came first, because it says in the bible, God created the animals. not eggs. I say it is the chicken, beware thought I am non religious.
I agree thank Colonel Sanders, for I would be skinny as a stick if it wasn't for him.
I owe you a bog debt colonel!!
The Theory of Evolution says that species change over time in the process of evolution. Since DNA can be modified only before birth, a mutation must have taken place at conception or within an egg such that an animal similar to a chicken, but not a chicken, laid the first chicken egg.[7][8] In this light, both the egg and the chicken evolved simultaneously from birds who weren't chickens and didn't lay chicken eggs but gradually became more and more like chickens over time.
However, a mutation in one individual is not normally considered a new species. A speciation event involves the separation of one population from its parent population, so that interbreeding ceases; this is the process whereby domesticated animals are genetically separated from their wild forebears. The whole separated group can then be recognized as a new species.
The modern chicken was believed to have descended from another closely related species of birds, the red junglefowl, but recently discovered genetic evidence suggests that the modern domestic chicken is a hybrid descendant of both the red junglefowl and the grey junglefowl.[9] Assuming the evidence bears out, a hybrid is a compelling scenario that the chicken-egg came before the chicken.

well, i like eggs sunny side up on toast with bacon and sometimes jam.....yum yum, and i like a really good chicken sandwich (moist juicy breast meat only please), I can eat these foods in any order, but usually i will eat the eggs on toast item first (breakfast), and i will eat the moist chicken sandwich later (lunch or dinner) so i guess perhaps i have come at this forum question in a different direction (egg first then chicken) do you see the way i put the answer together....really cool huh...like Einstein using mind games to arrive at his General theory, i digress, please check my profile often, i want to hit 2,000 views ....it would mean alot to me.....thanks for reading this....no offense intended to any groups or persons.......
Well, obviously it was the egg. This can be proved though Darwin's Theory of Evolution. Let's say we have an animal that's not quite a chicken by a biologist's standpoint. Let's call that "animal A". When the first real "chicken" came into existence, it came through that "animal A". After so many generations of mutated "animal A" eggs, the modern chicken become mainstream. Therefore in conclusion, the egg came first. :)
the half assed scientists posting are obssessing over the chicken point and are unable to answer the question of who laid the first egg.
Well, the concept of a chicken egg had no meaning before a chicken existed so I'd say it's more valid to assign the egg type based on the layer not what hatches out of it. An unfertilized chicken egg (like you'd buy at the store) isn't a yolk egg -- it's still a chicken egg even though no chicken will ever come out of it.
In either case, the type of egg was not specified in the question so the aspect that is debatable (how the type of egg is determined) is also not relevant to the original question.
I can buy that. So in theory, a chicken could hatch from an iguana egg, but an iguana could not lay a chicken egg. Works for me. :)
The real answer you're looking for is that they developed together. The error in the question is assumingthat one fo them HAD to come first, which isn't true.
