For an egg to hatch, it must be fertilized by a rooster, so there must have been either two eggs, or two chickens.

Philosophy confuses.

Or the chicken evolved from another species that laid a egg.

The chicken or the egg causality dilemma is commonly stated as "which came first, the chicken or the egg?" To ancient philosophers, the question about the first chicken or egg also evoked the questions of how life and the universe in general began.[1]

Cultural references to the Chicken and Egg intend to point out the futility of identifying the first case of a circular cause and consequence. It could be considered that in this approach lies the most fundamental nature of the question. A literal answer is an egg according to some people, as egg-laying species pre-date the existence of chickens. To others, the chicken came first, seeing as chickens are merely domesticated Red Junglefowls. However, the metaphorical view sets a metaphysical ground to the dilemma. To better understand its metaphorical meaning, the question could be reformulated as: "Which came first, X that can't come without Y, or Y that can't come without X?"

An equivalent situation arises in engineering and science known as circular reference, in which a parameter is required to calculate that parameter itself. Examples are Van der Waals equation and the Colebrook equation.

KFC is good, but I don't think it's been around as long as the chicken! I could definitely be wrong, though.

This question is subjective, but I think that the answer depends on the syntax of the question; meaning, is the egg specifically a chicken egg or the concept of an egg in general? If the former of the two is correct, then the chicken came first when the first genetically-compatible population of chickens were formed in the eggs of closely related ancestors, and the first chicken eggs weren't produced until this first generation of chickens matured into adults. If the latter of the two is correct, however, than the egg definitely came first many years before the chicken or even its closely related ancestors existed.

As we all know, evolution occurs because of mutations in the DNA.
When a new being hatches, there is an extremely slight mutation in its DNA.
Let's call whatever laid the egg that hatched into what we today know as "chicken" Chicken v0.1

Either:

-Chicken v0.1 laid a chicken egg that hatched into a chicken - In this case the chicken wins.

-An egg-laying species laid a v0.1 egg that hatched into the Chicken v0.1 which laid an egg that hatched into a chicken - In this case the egg wins

This brings us to the question:

What is a chicken egg?
Which is a pretty meaningless question.
But, we can all agree regardless of whether it was it was a chicken egg or a v0.1 egg, the egg came first.

There's your answer!

Neither one. The bacteria that evolved into the chicken came first. >:D

Then the egg.
