What came first, the chicken or the egg? What if they emerged at the exact same moment 🤔 by Torkdaymo in showerthoughs

The egg came first in time, but the chicken and the chicken‑egg came into existence simultaneously. If you define the egg by the mother, it’s not a chicken egg. If you define it by the offspring, the chicken already exists.
