@@perpetualzen actually, the classic "chicken or egg" question in philosophy is more of a metaphor for seemingly endless cycles and whether they had a beginning. this can range from the classic scientific inquiry of when speciation begins/occurs to cosmological discussions of big bang - big crunch cycles.
No need for heat. If a "chicken egg" is defined as "an egg laid by a chicken" then a chicken must have existed before the first chicken egg. But if a "chicken egg" is defined as "an egg that will hatch into a chicken" (assuming it's a healthy egg kept warm and safe) then a chicken egg must have existed before the first chicken. In summary, a proto-chicken laid a mutated egg that hatched into the first chicken, and the question is whether that egg should be called a "chicken egg."

@Madalin Grama Very interesting, a case of "analogous evolution", or whatever the right term is. It would be interesting to know how these methods of live birth are different from our placenta method!
@Madalin Grama Hem, not exactly, current species of sharks can reproduce have the three ways of reproduction. The most "primitives" are ovipares and lay eggs they attach to rocks, most of the sharks are ovovivipare, which mean they are born fully formed, but grow in utero in a separate egg, and some sharks are vivipare. But what made mammals, or at least placental mammals so unique is not the viviparity, but the placenta. Sharks don't have placenta, even the vivipares ones, they have a vitelline sack, like of an egg, but connected to the mother and common to all the embryos. And guess what, the DNA from viuses concerns the placenta ^^
I've always answered the question with "The egg came first because the chicken's ancestor laid eggs." It's good to have some extra details about how it all happened!
Effectively. The mucus plug is a separate membrane from the amniotic sac. The mucus plug can detach without the "water break," but not the other way around, and the amniotic sac is a closer analogy to an eggshell, since it surrounds the fetus and keeps fluid inside.

Wow! That was super interesting. I was always told in school that egg cells in mammals aren't like eggs from birds, just kind of similar in some ways.. but they are the same! But they just develop differently after fertilisation. It's really cool how interconnected everything is. So many things about us originated by chance, like all mammals having an inner ear bone must've originally been one creature that randomly had them, right? I know a lot about physics, and a little about chemistry, but far less about evolutionary biology.

Great episode. Of course, the "bill" of the Platypus is really unlike that of a duck because it is not hard, but soft and electro-receptive. That's how they find their favor food "Yabbies" in river or pond water that can be muddy. This is a very interesting episode, and finally (to my satisfaction at least) definitively answers the age old chicken or egg question.
@@jskratnyarlathotep8411 because the chicken is the domesticated version of the red jungle fowl and as humans domesticated the red jungle fowl by breeding it to other jungle fowls for specific traits, the animal slowly evolved from a wild fowl to the chicken we all know. That's what I know based on my research though I could be wrong so if I said anything wrong please feel free to correct me.
@@ioannisskardasis6887 i've just extended your initial explanation. Any mutations, happening in grown up chicken does not change its species, but changes in the egg do.
Well, this vid is years old, but there's s much nonsense in the comment section. Here's the answer. Just follow this simple sequence; 1. chickens develop in eggs that hatch 2. those eggs are laid by mothers (hens) 3. chickens evolved from an ancestral species (jungle fowl) 4. jungle fowl develop in eggs that hatch 5. those eggs are laid by mothers (also called hens) - So, in the case of chickens, they hatch from eggs, clearly demonstrating that eggs must come first - As for the first chickens, that's why points 3, 4 and 5 are included; chickens evolved from a prior species and _that_ has the same sequence of egg first - Taking it back to the first egg of this type; the first amniotes, this egg type evolved from reptiliomorph ancestors 300+mya. Therefore the egg _still_ came first
YES! I was waiting for the episode on the placenta. And it's even better because you, Blake, teased us about doing it and it's you now how's doing it!!! I'm going to try to squeeze it in my Human Reproduction class if I can. Thank you for doing this video!
The Egg came before the Chicken itself, but metaphorically the chicken demonstrably came before the egg - eggs were an adaptation by previously existing life.

Khaleesi Romaerys your reaction makes it even worser
@@frederikvanreusel why do you care?? I love any types of eggs. Are you affected?? Your life at risk? 🤦♀😂
@@romella_karmey you thirsty for some man eggs, huh...
6:25 - "Juramaia, a toothy, shrew-like mammal..." I thought Juramaia was a bullfrog.
He was a friend of mine.
Lol! Good one!
Ha! Thats funny!🙂

I wish I were motivated enough to get my PhD, publish, and maintain a physique of a Greek demigod
I can't get over this fact. I always thought it was some chicken ancestor which had evolved to lay egg.
These videos scratch a certain itch I can't explain. I could watch all day--In fact, I have!
I'm back again to say again... STEVE! STEVE! WHO ARE YOU STEVE?WHERES OUR VIDEO WE WANT TO KNOW!!
@Michael Enquist lol wow they even have a list nice. Still want them to make a video just to be safe 😂.
8:20 is my face when a new Eons episode debuts
Rick Bannan cute
Lizard pog
He’s such a daddy
YES, that's what I've always been saying. But, man, is he getting bigger and bigger. 😊
Maidros Fëanoron Y'all thirsty
Thank you so much for this incredible video. 🙏
Everything about this tells me that the reign of humanity will be short and sweet.
This was literally my justification and backup the entire time and you gave me solid proof 🤣
I would love to see an episode explain and describing all the different eras, epochs, periods, and ages.
@pyro pickle - I agree. I get easily confused with all the different time periods they mention and would appreciate a clear, logical timeline to get me oriented, one that clearly shows where all the sub-eras/ages/epochs/periods fit
Coronavirus: "How would y'all like to make some eggs again, huh? Like dem good ol' times!''
Great episode. Of course, the "bill" of the Platypus is really unlike that of a duck because it is not hard, but soft and electro-receptive. That's how they find their favor food "Yabbies" in river or pond water that can be muddy.
This is a very interesting episode, and finally (to my satisfaction at least) definitively answers the age old chicken or egg question.
@Melissa Dalby - An episode on the evolution of the platypus would be fascinating.
Imagine how confused the first animal was that layed an egg
Imagine how confused the first that didn't was!
Bro you look jacked💪🏽💪🏽
Simple answer. The egg came first. Why? Because of evolution
because changes happen during fertilizing. Non-chicken layed egg with a chicken in it
@@jskratnyarlathotep8411 *AHEM* domestication *AHEM*
@@ioannisskardasis6887 How domestication changes the fact that species changes are happening during fertilizing of the egg?
@@jskratnyarlathotep8411 because the chicken is the domesticated version of the red jungle fowl and as humans domesticated the red jungle fowl by breeding it to other jungle fowls for specific traits, the animal slowly evolved from a wild fowl to the chicken we all know. That's what I know based on my research though I could be wrong so if I said anything wrong please feel free to correct me.
@@ioannisskardasis6887 i've just extended your initial explanation. Any mutations, happening in grown up chicken does not change its species, but changes in the egg do.
I really appreciate how you’re reaching out to t the younger ones with the new approach, thank you & as always great video
Finally someone can prove that team egg should win the chickin vs. egg splatfest
Well, this vid is years old, but there's s much nonsense in the comment section. Here's the answer.
Just follow this simple sequence;
1. chickens develop in eggs that hatch
2. those eggs are laid by mothers (hens)
3. chickens evolved from an ancestral species (jungle fowl)
4. jungle fowl develop in eggs that hatch
5. those eggs are laid by mothers (also called hens)
- So, in the case of chickens, they hatch from eggs, clearly demonstrating that eggs must come first
- As for the first chickens, that's why points 3, 4 and 5 are included; chickens evolved from a prior species and _that_ has the same sequence of egg first
- Taking it back to the first egg of this type; the first amniotes, this egg type evolved from reptiliomorph ancestors 300+mya. Therefore the egg _still_ came first
Me: the egg came first

YES! I was waiting for the episode on the placenta. And it's even better because you, Blake, teased us about doing it and it's you now how's doing it!!! I'm going to try to squeeze it in my Human Reproduction class if I can. Thank you for doing this video!
Here again to rewatch it. :)
A ripped biologist, that's wat I needed all along
The Egg came before the Chicken itself, but metaphorically the chicken demonstrably came before the egg - eggs were an adaptation by previously existing life.
