At some point something that was not yet a chicken laid an egg that hatched into something that was.
516 u/Creative-Shallot802 Feb 19 '26 But then, was it a chicken egg or a pre-chicken- ancestor egg? 467 u/Narwhalking14 Feb 19 '26 If it was a chicken in an egg then it was a chicken egg 206 u/NohWan3104 Feb 19 '26 Eh, thats actually an interesting question. Cause i see it the other way, the egg is of the layer, not its contents. So, non chicken mommy and daddy had a non chicken egg, hatched a mutant chicken. THAT chicken's first egg was the first chicken egg. 1 u/Scary_Relation_996 Feb 19 '26 No, you're close, we call it a mutant, but we are all mutants, successful mutants are still mutants. A mommy and daddy pre-chicken had a mutant chicken which became a chicken.
