Incidentally, jungle fowl (the oldest things we could look at and say "that's probably a chicken or chicken adjacent") first show up in the fossil record in the late Miocene (5-10 million years ago). And the earliest members of Phasianidae (ground nesting birds like pheasants, turkeys and chickens) show up in the fossil record in the Oligocene about 30 million years ago. Thereby thoroughly showing that the egg predates the chicken in chicken lineage by about 20 million years.

You have to have a chicken to have a egg so I say chicken. Like God made man and told him to multiply; he made chickens and told them the same thing probably.

My vote's on chicken. I'm a Christian and believe that God created animals "according to their kind". And so the chickens came first... because otherwise, how did the egg hatch? It had to be incubated!

(Not trying to start a fight with anyone who believes differently, I love seeing the different views. @ChocolateMouse the way you put it sounds pretty interesting. )

I want to say chicken.
