Although you could argue that the Chicken came first because god created the Chicken and the Chicken then created the egg.

I dont think saying god did it accounts for a credible argument and wouldnt hold up in any court or science review. sorry

Hence why I say "A person could argue." And the answer preceding that one was in fact a more appropriate answer to this question regardless. And if you were not trying to just skim through something and make smart comments about things you think would be funny to laugh at you would know what. But if you have a better idea on this paradoxical question and in fact it is because the question itself is persistently used as an example to describe these kinds of questions.

Something similar to a chicken but isnt infact what we would call a modern day chicken?

I believe that the chicken evolved from another species.

Yes. When did I say it didnt. But think about variation, where do mutations occur, they dont happen once you are grown. They occur during the maturity of the foetus. Which in the case of chickens is inside the egg.
