That depends on your philosophical grounding. If you get your science from the Bible, the answer is "the chicken." However, if you go with evolution, then the first chicken hatched from an egg laid by something that wasn't QUITE a chicken but its offspring were, so the answer is "the egg."

that's so glaring that it really is the egg because: Reptiles developed in the previous chickens did, and to guarantee that the reptiles to even lay eggs on land, they had to create some type that ought to domicile the more youthful, and this replaced into in the fashion of the egg. because reptiles developed from the sea also (they initially produced offspring in the water), there had to be some evolutionary importance in the egg to let them be in an non-aquatic ecosystem. definite, there is, and that is said as the amniotic fluid that surrounds embryos at the same time as in the egg. Amniotic sac. So, its quite no longer a question! The egg absolutely developed first

In the Book of Genesis we see the following
1:24
God said, "Let the earth bring forth each kind of living creature -each kind of livestock, crawling animal and wild beast"; and that is how it was.
1:25
God made each kind of wild beast, each kind of livestock and every kind of animal that crawls along the ground; and God saw that it was good.
2:19
So from the ground ADONAI, God, formed every wild animal and every bird that flies in the air, and he brought them to the person to see what he would call them. Whatever the person would call each living creature, that was to be its name.
Therefore the chicken came first.

Chicken.
This answer assumes that only some is eternal (God the creator) and special creation (each after it's own kind).

If you are really serious, then please go with the scientist who tells us that egg is first.
