Well, looking at it from an evolutionary viewpoint, the Egg. The reason is that the Chicken as we know it today is a descendant of a less-evolved bird we'll call a protochicken. Now, since we have to assume that a given life form cannot change its genetic code any more than a leopard can change its spots we can say the protochicken and today's chicken are not the same genetically but it is possible for evolution to cause a subtle change in the next generation's genetic makeup to adjust for the forces that affect a life form's viability in a given environment. Thus, the first chicken came from the egg of a protochicken.
------------ Another chicken joke: A while back there was a major fire at a chicken "factory" (a large, sometimes multi-level building that houses chickens on a chicken farm) and the fire completely destroyed the building. Over 50,000 chickens died in the fire. Somehow, a single chicken was found to have survived the fire. It was discovered on the other side of the road, watching the fire. When approached by a reporter it said, "See? THAT'S why!" J.T.
