x-in-man Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 'Eggless' chick laid by hen in Sri Lanka http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/17769677 The chick is fully formed and healthy, although the mother has died. A post-mortem conducted on the hen's body concluded that it died of internal wounds. The BBC's Charles Haviland in Colombo says that the story has made headlines in Sri Lanka, with the Sri Lankan Daily Mirror's concluding: "The chicken came first; not the egg." So - the chicken did come first - but at what point did the other chickens realise it was probably a better idea to have one in a shell first. Another question to baffle the scientists for 1000s of years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Tatlock Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 They're all wrong. It was the cockerel, otherwise there wouldn't be a fertilised egg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I didn't know Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Logically you can'thave a chicken egg without first having a chicken lay it! Simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question still stands though....god put Adam and Eve on earth, they then had kids. Did god put a chicken or an egg in the garden of eden? Or was it an egg that actually exploded in the big bang? (which might go a long way to explaining all the white/yellow you can see in the sky at night). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeliX Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Easy. The egg. It was laid by something that wasn't quite a chicken, but what hatched was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merkin Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 I asked at the same question at McDonalds to see whether they gave me the Mc Chicken Nuggets or the Egg Mc Muffin first. FYI - It was the nuggets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Did god put a chicken or an egg in the garden of eden? I think you'll find that it was an apple and boy did that cause some fucking trouble! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
