      Hmmmm, I reckon probably the egg, because it’s a smaller collection of cells 😛

      I’m gonna say the egg… and I did a vote in my department and 85% agree it is the egg with their reason for choice being that chickens come from dinosaurs and the mutation which led to the evolution of chickens must have come from the egg… But this is probably still a very widely debated question! haha 🙂

      In my garden, the chicken came first because I went to the farm down the road and bought them. And then they laid some tasty eggs afterwards.
