      I suppose technically the Egg came before the Chicken because many animals (like Dinosaurs!) laid eggs way before chickens existed!

      I agree, the egg came first.

      Even if you are talking about just chicken eggs, you could say the first chick was formed when a female almost-chicken and a male almost-chicken mated, the baby (egg) would be the first real chicken.

      What do you think the answer is?
