  • The chicken egg came first actually. Random genetic mutations happen (along with recombinant dna between parents) during fertilization.

    Adult organisms don't "evolve", only their offspring might.

  • Simple. I ate an egg for breakfast today and a chicken sandwich for lunch. Ergo, the egg came first. Don't see what the fuss is all about.

  • @stu3100 how can you try and act smart about evolution theories when you cant even spell dinosaur?

  • Dinasaurs were egg layers, and the Chicken evolved from this, so the Egg came first, millions of years before Chickens evolved.

  • evolution for all the christfags

    big bang happened

    micro organisms were created by natural reactions of basic elements and heat

    micro organisms were killed by heat except for the strongest of their kind

    those organisms became multi cellular

    that then created a slew of other multi cellular creates and some were mammals

    mammal lays egg with a mutated embryo

    egg hatches and creates chicken

    herp derp

  • @Chnamanjx

    good insight-a theory though

  • LMAOOOO

  • @Chnamanjx Offspring don't evolve; individuals don't evolve. Populations evolve.

  • @adrianeaglrck ok this is my final word as you are clearly just a troll. Reply in whatever badly worded way you want. I answered your question. Read my posts again slowly...then think...then read again...got it? Where did the chicken you mentioned come from? Bravo! Its an easy answer and no need to check credentials. An egg? Evolution isnt hard to understand. So in return with sarcasm a plenty, you are a thick, thick, thick.

    Oh and "upmost" is one word.

    Yours helpfully for the last time.

  • yours

  • yeah i hold on to my sarcasm buddy....and i really can't check your credential can't i so i assume all youtubers as non credible sources for knowledge...with the up most offense and sarcasm your truly fucker focker fuck

  • @adrianeaglrck I am a you tube "commenter" sometimes but that does not mean I am not credible. No need for sarcasm. I merely answered your question. A basic understanding of evolution means that I know that adults DONT evolve. Evolution happens when gentetic mutations take place in the offspring. Therefore, a bird cannot suddenly change into a chicken. A new species starts with a new generation...ie a new chicken from an egg. Hope thats clearer. Feel free to check a more "credible source"
