The comparison of the origins of two of the principal emergent phenomena in Nature - the Universe and species is not valid?

Not if you are "literally" talking about Chickens and Eggs.

If you are discussing the origin of life the universe and everything, that is another thing. And above my paygrade.

FACT: Mutations only happen in the Zygote state.

FACT: Zygotes only exist inside of eggs.

I don't care if those facts come from a Disney sponsored debate or Howdy Freekin Duty, it doesn't change the fact that they are currently accepted scientific facts.

I made it quite clear that I was literally talking about Chickens and Eggs. And based on scientific fact the egg came first. You do not need two chickens to make a chicken egg. You do not need "a mate."

BTW way to cherry pick "equivocating" phrases from a paragraph that makes no bones about its conjecture that man engineered chickens by combining red and grey junglefowl.

Now, do you really want to continue arguing about what came first, the Fracking Chicken or the Freling Egg?

Really?
