I know the history of the debate, still I think there is a answer. But to understand the answer, you would have to understand Darwinism and has to take it to be true.
Given that, the egg came first before the chicken.
Of course the next question would be, who laid that egg?
And the answer is, the ancestor of chicken.
Now to explain a bit: according to Darwinism all animals are created by change. However, most of the significant change occurs in the gene. The gene does not change once the baby is born. so, whatever is the first chicken it became an egg first.

Actually, the chicken came first. But ancient chickens were not used to lay eggs. Once a chick got pregnant and at that time she had to go through a surgery. The chick doctor lost his gloves and in a few weeks the first egg was laid! The glove was converted in to the shell and the zygote was inside it.

First chicken is a hybrid clone of an Emu and a pigeon with a hint of lemon pepper!

Right you are Z-Bhai. Great to hear from you again. Whatever happened to Deep Thought? Still in Magrathea you reckon? Now more deliberately misleading factoids on that pseudoperfect number.
Quote:
42 (forty-two) is the natural number following 41 and preceding 43.
It is a composite number; its factorization makes it the second sphenic number and also the second of the form {2.3.r}. As with all sphenic numbers of this form the aliquot sum is abundant by 12. 42 is also the second sphenic number to be bracketed by twin primes; 30 also rests between two primes. 42 has a 14 member aliquot sequence 42, 54, 66, 78, 90, 144, 259, 45, 33, 15, 9, 4, 3, 1, 0 and is itself part of the aliquot sequence commencing with the first sphenic number 30. Further, 42 is the 10th member of the 3-aliquot tree.
42 is the product of the first three terms of Sylvester's sequence; like the first four such numbers it is also a primary pseudoperfect number.
It is the sum of the totient function for the first eleven integers.
It is a Catalan number.
It is the reciprocal of a Bernoulli number
It is conjectured to be the scaling factor in the leading order term of the "sixth moment of the Riemann zeta function". In particular, Conrey & Ghosh have conjectured
where the infinite product is over all prime numbers, p.
It is a pronic number, and the third 15-gonal number. It is a meandric number and an open meandric number.
42 is a perfect score on the USA Math Olympiad (USAMO) and International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).
In base 10, this number is a Harshad number and a self number, while it is a repdigit in base 4 (as 222).
The eight digits of pi beginning from 242,422 places after the decimal point are 42424242.
The first digit (4) taken to the power of the second digit (2) is equal to the second digit (2) taken to the power of the first digit (4): 42 = 24 = 16. It follows clearly that 24 exhibits the same characteristic, and in fact 24 is the only other two-digit non-repdigit number that does. (All two-digit repdigit numbers exhibit this characteristic.)

LOL, its a hard question to ask I assume the chicken came from a cross breed of two different birds which created a chicken that came from an egg

The first chicken's name was 'Puck'? Or Puck is a chicken? How does s/he type with his/her feathers?

Just thinking chicken or egg wont solve the problem. Like any other creature, chicken went through a very very long process of evolution. Million years ago chicken wasnt the chicken as we know now and it probably didnt useto lay eggs and probably went through some other reproductive method. But with time,it slowly changed its reproductive method to laying eggs to cope with nature...and after millions of years of evolution process , we have the chicken as we see now.

Allah subhanahu wa taala mentioned in the glorious Qur'an:
Quote:
[Yaa-Seen 36:36] Purity is to Him Who created all pairs, from what the earth grows, and of themselves, and from the things they do not know.
|
According to this ayah, it is clear that Allah created every creatures in pairs, and chicken is no exception. So, chicken came first, then came the egg.
Simple as that, if you do not believe in evolution (like me).....

Theologically u cannot give the trophy to egg. Scientifically you must. cause everything came from water where the first life was evolved in form of embryos and tiny little life forms. After all algae is older than cockroach.

Aristotle: "If there has been a first man he must have been born without father or mother -- which is repugnant to nature. For there could not have been a first egg to give a beginning to birds, or there should have been a first bird which gave a beginning to eggs; for a bird comes from an egg."
Plutarch:
"...the problem about the egg and the hen, which of them came first, was dragged into our talk, a difficult problem which gives investigators much trouble. And Sulla my comrade said that with a small problem, as with a tool, we were rocking loose a great and heavy one, that of the creation of the world"
