The Chicken or the Egg

Which came first, the Chicken or the Egg? A question that philosophers have asked for centuries, but they have neglected to ask them: The Chicken and/or the Egg. I decided to ask them during my visit to the farm. Unfortunately, they wouldn’t agree; but after a chicken/egg fight I got a response.

The Egg’s opinion is of course that he/she came first, (he/she because the egg is still developing at this time, and then the egg says that, any interdisciplinary students who disregard this can spend time in a shell to see how they like it). The egg backs up its finding on the fact that you can’t have a chicken without first having an egg, from which the chicken has hatched from.

The Egg’s opinion is completely disregarded by the Chicken however, she says, (Of course the chicken being a female, being the mother of the egg; and any gender rights activist can go sit on a hard egg for a while to see how it feels, this is how the chicken begins). She goes on to say that you can’t have an egg without a chicken to lay the egg.

Maybe the answer will never be found, but on the contrary there is a third opinion in the matter that walks in as I’m leaving: the farmer. The farmer debates, that there can neither be chicken nor no egg without him, because he feeds them. The farmer’s mother disagrees and says that there wouldn’t be a farmer without first the mother……
