chicken and egg

i think the chicken came first. this is why:

I'm a creationist, I believe an Almighty God made everything that came into existence. I believe that God created the chicken, as well as the egg- each to fulfill their own purposes. So the question is, would God create an egg at the beginning, instead of creating a chicken directly?

While He could've created the egg first and still made perfect sense in doing so, from what I understand about eggs today, I'm sure He first created the chicken. And through the chicken, allowed eggs to come into existence.
Why?

He created chickens to sit on eggs so that these eggs could in turn become chickens.
Isn't it simple? Eggs could not have given rise to chickens at the very beginning because they needed to be carefully incubated!

the chicken and egg problem is solved, it isnt a problem anymore. Thanks jasmine, for raising the question over dinner.
