Chicken or the egg – a limerick

September 9, 2014 by Padaek 2 Comments

Chicks hatching USDA95c1973
Chicks hatching (Gallus gallus domesticus)((1))

Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Asked the baby chicken to the egg.
It just sat there and stared
But nothing could be shared,
Because the chicken was in the egg.

      Hi Jem,

      Thanks for your comment. I know, it’s one of those dilemmas where it’s either a or b, or something else. I don’t know, lol. Best wishes. :)
