Which came first: the chicken or the egg?

Now we know it was the chicken! Because it’s a fact! Because a computer got involved and solved everything!

Scientists in England, using a supercomputer named HECToR (their capitalization, not mine) determined that there’s a bit of protein necessary for the formation of an egg and that protein is only found in chickens.

Still no word on where that first chicken came from though.

So sorry, egg! You came last!
