synexo Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I say The Egg, definately. An earlier, nearly-chicken species must have laid the egg that first contained an actual chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vektram Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Chicken evolved to lay an egg. But that chicken must have hatched from an egg, and a chicken must have lain said egg. Chickens were never mammals (obviously). Basically what came first depends on our modern-day versions of chcikens and eggs. So what we're asking is: What came first? The chicken whom we know and love today, or the egg we know and love today? So if we go back in history to find that pivotal chicken, ie, the domesticated bird that lays oval-shapd eggs that fit in the palm of your hand the chicken would come first, why? Because the chicken we know and love today must have laid eggs exactly the same to the eggs we know and love today (WKALT), the chicken WKALT would have evolved before the egg WKALT because if the egg was produced by a different kind of chicken it is not the egg WKALT. EDIT: That's bit wierdly worded, if you don't get my crazy writing i'll rewrite it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino4 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 It's quite simple really... Q: Why did the chicken cross the road? A: So she could lay an egg!! So now you have the answer to both of these mind bending questions :stare: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pef Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 well , a long research revealed that long before chickens there were eggs roaming the earth , rolling around to move and crushing the pray when they roll on it, then they absorbed to nutrients from their pray through their porous shell.this obviusly places eggs close to crabs as exoskeletal creatures, then at some point during their evolution the eggs began to dream of flying -thus they evolved into a different specie - the flyings eggs only that even tho their shape was perfectly aerodynamic they lacked propulsion(so many accidents occured) so they evolved more into semi-exoskeletal animals , growings wings out of their shell(even if not discovered yet-this is the missing link) still they lacked steerings and landing gears thus some accidents still occur so they evolved more and they grew a steering tail and landed on thier belly(much like the Komet early jets), accidents still occured due to missing landing gear so eggs finnaly evolved into growing landing legs.now eggs had full cotrol over thier flight and could reproduce masively .Soon it became obvious that outer skeleton was hindering mobilty so few darings eggs began despensing of their skin and grew feathers instead while turning the weight onto an internal skeleton.As it became apparent that outer skeletons provide some protection while young higher mobility made all the rest of eggs to dispense of their exo-skeleton at elder ages. i hope my inside information helped to clear this enigmatic aspect of cretacic times.
