The egg. Life comes from a seed. The egg is the seed in this case.

Definitely the egg. Eggs were being laid by various species long before chickens arrived on the seen.

Wherever you decide to draw the arbitrary line between proto-chicken and chicken, the first chicken hatched from the first chicken egg.

the chicken

Genesis

1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

1:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

God created the chicken and told it to lay the first egg
