Default Chicken or the egg (with answer)

For a long time now, we've been pondering over the question of 1) which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Let's ask it this way instead, 2) which came first, the egg or the chicken.

Lets move on to some new questions.

Aha! Whilst surely your ingenious answer must have been said before by someone else I must say that I had never heard it (or figured it out for that matter). Brilliant! Yes, I was actually highly amused by your answer, thanks for that.
