Q: Does it surprise you that I said that?
I'm surprised, and proud!

Logically, the chicken as we know it would have to be a mutation of an existing species that happened at the time of fertilization. As whatever laid the egg for the first chicken as we know it would be some form of proto-chicken or similar animal, the answer would have to be the egg.
A team at Sheffield University last year found substantial evidence for the chicken to have come first. Something to do with a specific protein needed to convert the calcium carbonate into calcite for these types of eggs is only found in the chicken.
Anyway, will you play FFXIV with me sometime?
