I can’t really remember the study or whatever, but the answer is egg. You’d need the mutation in DNA in the laid egg before you could get the chicken. And then propagation after until chickens are everywhere of course.
This is a simplified version of what I read, but that’s basically it.
Unless you define "chicken egg" as an egg laid by a chicken. It's question of definitions
But the question doesn't specify a "chicken egg". It simply says "egg". So the answer is egg, laid by some chicken ancestor.
