I don't like this because it's not addressing the actual saying. Obviously the saying is about chicken eggs specifically.
But I've always felt obviously the egg came first. The first chicken was born in an egg, so the egg came first. That egg could have been produced from a creature with a mutation which caused it to produce the first chicken egg when it is not itself the exact same species.
It's somehiw obvious now, but the question appeared 25 centuries ago when it wasn't even remotely clear what was the answer.
