That is two non-chicken mated, and in their new Zygote contained the mutation/s that produced the 1st true chicken. The Zygote cell is the only place where DNA mutation would produce a new animal, and the Zygote cell is housed in the chicken's egg. So Biological speaking, the egg must have come 1st. 2nd.
