The first chicken was created from a mutation of another species. That mutation occurred before the egg was completely formed, making it the first chicken egg. The first chicken wasn’t born until it hatched from that egg.
Therefore, there was a chicken egg before there was a chicken.
So, by this you say that that egg when the egg was first laid it was not a chicken egg, but after the mutation it became a chicken egg? How do you determine if an unhatched egg is a chicken egg then? At this point I think we’re better off calling all eggs Schrodinger eggs, because we never know what they are until hatched.
Well, technically that’s true. Without analyzing a fertilized egg, we don’t know with certainty what the result will be.
For example, a woman could give birth to an albino without knowing before birth. Albinism is a mutation in the melanin production gene. The mutation forms in-utero. The equivalent to an in-utero mutation in an oviparous (egg-laying) animal would occur inside the egg.
So the direct ancestor of the chicken laid an egg that mutated into the first chicken egg, then the first chicken hatched from it.
