From a " Darwinian " " perspective " ( perspective is a term not used in science, but usually social science/humanities ) the question makes no sense. Populations evolve, individuals are selected. If you can not get this simple concept evolution and evolutionary theory will make no sense to you and you will continue to ask ill posed questions.
Your question is directly analogous to asking something like....
" How much does the color blue weigh? "
According to evolutionary biology, the egg came first. The first bird that could be classified as a chicken would have evolved from a different species through the process of gradual changes leading to genetic mutations, making the egg laid by this bird the first to contain what we would recognize as a chicken.
This question is a classic philosophical paradox with no definitive answer. From an evolutionary perspective, the egg came first, laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken, but eventually hatched into a creature that we would call a chicken.
Most scientists believe that the chicken came first, as a result of genetic mutations occurring in an egg laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken. This led to the evolution of the modern chicken species.
This question is more of a philosophical debate. From an evolutionary standpoint, it is believed that the egg came first, as the genetic mutation necessary for a chicken to hatch must have first occurred in an egg. However, from a biblical perspective, it is said that God created the animals, including chickens, fully formed.
The egg came first. The first chicken would have hatched from an egg laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken yet, due to gradual changes over time in its genes.
obviously its the egg! How else would the chike- oh wait... A circle has no beginning.

Technically the ancestors of the chicken came first.

I will clear up the question:"What came first, the chicken or the egg?"You are correct, the chicken came first.
There is much debate about whether the chicken or the egg came first, but both came before KFC.
No matter whether you adhere to the generally-accepted Darwinian theories orto a strictly creationist ideology, the earth came first. (What would we stand on?)

The egg came first. The first chicken would have hatched from an egg laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken yet, due to gradual changes over time in its genes.
yes they canWhat came first was a micro organism that had slowly evolved to a chicken so you might say the chicken came first.
