Stop the presses!

Man has pondered for millenium what came first- The Chicken or The Egg? Now we may know the answer-

A TEAM of scientists claims to have found the answer to the question: What came first, the chicken or the egg?

The team comprising a geneticist, a philosopher and a chicken farmer says the egg came first.

The first chicken developed differently to its avian predecessors.

Such mutations could only have occurred at the start of the chicken's life when it was in the egg. Therefore, the egg existed before the first chicken had hatched.

Professor John Brookfield of the University of Nottingham, who is an expert in evolutionary genetics, said the first chicken would have hatched from another species of bird.

Aren't you relieved that a riddle has been solved. What is up next? Why there are interstate highways in Hawaii?
