So if some non chicken creature laid an egg with a chicken in it, it would be a chicken egg?
-
Yes because it has a chicken in it.
-
Yeah. If I had a baby that was a tiger, it would still be a tiger.
-
You don't lay eggs though. I wasn't disputing that the chicken was a chicken.
-
My point was that you said if some non chicken thing layed an egg with a chicken, would it be a chicken. I said if I (not a tiger) had a baby tiger it would still be a tiger (even in the womb). Same logic applies, even if there's no eggs. Also, frogs do lay eggs.
-
It's the physical egg itself that's important here. The egg is from the mother (a different creature) but contains a chicken. So what kind of egg is it?
-
Well I guess after the egg is layed it doesn't matter what pooped it out does it? Just what's inside.
-
The shell is still made from stuff from the mother creature.
-
Waitwaitwait. So this chicken egg doesn't look like a chicken egg? So let's say a turtle layed it. It would look like a turtle egg... but have a chicken inside? Ming = blown Let's just say it's both.
-
Which came first then?
-
Dinosaurs. /thread
-
What do dinosaurs have to do with it?
-
I believe that both turtles and chickens evolved from dinosaurs, so dinosaurs would have come first. But don't quote me on that.
-
Yeah. Were talking about [u]chickens[/u] and eggs though, not dinosaurs and eggs. Though if you want to discuss whether the dinosaur or the egg came first, I'd be open to it.
-
We got off-topic. But the Dinosaur came first.
-
How can you say the chicken egg came first but the dinosaur came before the dinosaur egg?
-
-
So the egg came first then?

That's how we got the chicken isn't it? From an ancient chicken.
