He said: "Eggs were around long before the first chicken arrived. Of course, they may not have been chicken eggs as we see them today, but they were eggs." OK, sure, but I've always taken the question to be, "Which came first, the chicken or the chicken egg?" Otherwise it's obvious... He told PA people were mistaken if they argued that the mutant egg belonged to the "non-chicken" bird parents. "I would argue it is a chicken egg if it has a chicken in it," he said. Can't you just as easily argue that it's a chicken if it has a chicken egg in it? Is this simply about definitions? Who says that you could tell the first creature that mutated to lay that first egg from the first one to grow up inside an egg? And if you couldn't, this argues that the chicken came first.
