Actually, whatever novel combination of DNA first constituted "chicken" speciation was probably created during meiosis of the first chicken's parents' gametes; not really mutation. But yes, that first chicken's egg would appear before the zygote would become a recognizable chicken.

Then that chicken would hatch. It would roam free and happy for many months, in the company of its chicken brethren.

Until one day, a day that will live in infamy, it would come across a creature -- a creature that walked on two legs, and had no fur. And he was probably black, so the chicken new it was in trouble. Immediately, it was speared, and slow roasted over a fire (unfortunately, fry batter hadn't evolved yet).

That day the world discovered just how delicious chicken is.

And that cro-magnon man?

His name was Popeye. And his chicken was, and still is, amazing. Definitely better than KFC.
