This is an easy question to answer, but most people overlook the obvious.

Any creature coming out of an egg can only do so from a FERTILIZED egg! 😲

Therefore the chicken species HAD to come first, in order to lay an egg that would hatch...

Another proof of this is: If the fertilized egg came first, then upon hatching, how would the chicken lay another fertilized egg??? There had to be two chickens.
you are not sound in your proof: a duck egg could mutate into a chicken egg.
it would not need to be fertilised by a chicken ... it would be fertilised - by a duck.

here is my argument of this moment: an egg mutation only requires one mutation - quite feasible.
a chicken mutation requires two - yes that's right - TWO simultaneous mutations, one will not do because it will not be able to make babies alone ... two ducks need to mutate into chickens at the same time ... this is extremely unlikely ... and so it is almost certain: the egg mutation was the way that is most likely ... and so the egg came first!
