Eggs-perts rule on chicken riddle
The team all agreed that the chicken came after the egg
A geneticist, a philosopher and a chicken farmer say they have found the answer to a great evolutionary puzzle.
The experts looked at the evidence in the long-standing debate over which came first - the chicken or the egg - and opted for the egg.
Professor John Brookfield, a genetics expert from Nottingham University, said the first chicken must have started out as an embryo in an egg.
This means the organism in the eggshell would have the same DNA as the chicken.
He explained that the reason was due to the fact that genetic material does not change during an animal's life.
Professor Brookfield said: "The first living thing which we could say unequivocally was a member of the species would be this first egg, so I would conclude that the egg came first."
Kangaroo eggs
Professor David Papineau, an expert in the philosophy of science at King's College, London agreed that the first chicken came from an egg and this proves there were chicken eggs before chickens.
"I would argue it is a chicken egg if it has a chicken in it," said Prof Papineau.
"If a kangaroo laid an egg from which an ostrich hatched, that would surely be an ostrich egg, not a kangaroo egg," he added.
Charles Bournes, chairman of trade body Great British Chicken, said "Eggs were around long before the first chicken arrived.
"Of course they may not have been chicken eggs as we see them today but they were eggs," he said.
Professor Brooke added the debate could finally be laid to rest.

Many years ago, The Beatles came to the USA. Everyone wanted to see them… even the animals. (The Monkeys did see them)
So, one day, the chicken set out to go see the Beatles… but in order to do this, it had to cross the road… thus…the reason why it crossed the road.
No one was around the Farm, because everyone who was anyone, went to see the Beatles.. even the Farmer.
That’s what the farmer was doing and why he was there. No one wanted to miss the Beatles..
But when the Farmer got there and saw the chicken there too, he was so upset, he laid an egg..
So that answers the question, which came first, the chicken or the egg? THE CHICKEN!!
The chicken was at the concert before the egg was..

Chicken had to come first. There couldn't be any eggs without chickens to lay them, right?

If you believe in evolution the egg would come first.
If you believe in creation the chicken would come first.
