This version is interesting because an egg containing a chicken might have been laid by a chicken or a non-chicken, which of course affects the answer. Thanks to modern genetic science, we can now be sure that the egg came first.
Because Iâve been down that road before. The whole chicken-egg thing only ends in headache and frustration. But if you want to know where â geographically â chickens come from, the answer is Thailand (or thereabouts).Thatâs where they were originally domesticated, sometime around 7500 BC.Chickens are descended from junglefowl, medium-sized ground-dwelling creatures related to pheasants, which inhabit open spots in jungles and forest edges in southeast Asia.Thatâs about as specific as I can get without inciting argument.For chickens, it turns out, are a highly contentious subject.hickens are descended from junglefowl, medium-sized ground-dwelling creatures related to pheasants, which inhabit open spots in jungles and forest edges in southeast Asia.
