So, which came first, the chicken or the egg?

    I actually think there is an answer to this. :-) 

Yes.  The answer must be the egg, if you figure that only changes in
blueprints (i.e., in the genes of living organisms) are passed on from
one generation to another.  The entity was conceived by a
proto-chicken, its genes changed, and its changed genes are got passed
on.  This supposes that in biological evolution there are no Lamarkian
changes, as in human learning.
