Mailbag Monday: Which REALLY came first, the chicken or the egg?

Though chickens have been around for thousands of years, dinosaurs were laying eggs millions of years prior. So technically, eggs were around well before chickens.

Asked by reality-uncheck.

    I think the question can be rephrased as, “What came first, the dino or the egg?” Chickens came from dinos anyways.
