In this draft, I will be writing about whether the chicken or the egg came first. The debate comes down to the topic of evolution. Bird eggs that we recognize today (the amniotic egg) came about not by chickens but by the ancestors that lived before its time. The evolution of an amniotic egg came from the movement of water-reproducing organisms to land-reproducing organisms. As animals began to live on land, time brought upon genetic mutations that resulted in two almost-chicken organism. These cross between these two organisms is what created the modern chicken. As the modern chicken populated in species, these chicken produced what we know as chicken eggs. So in reality, the chicken is what came first, but the evolution of an amniotic egg came way before the modern chicken almost 340 million years ago. Depending on what kind of egg is in question, “the safest bet is to say the egg came first.”
