It could be a new species for all we know. But it seems to have come from a regular chicken. The real questions is this. Where did the changes that occurred for this creature to have 4 legs happen, if it comes from a 2 legged creature? The changes occurred at the molecular level as the egg was being initially formed. Hence the egg came before the species....
So it is a chicken with 4 legs that came from a chicken egg laid by a chicken. So, you point is? Let me know if this four legged chicken lays eggs that hatch into 4 legged chickens...
ZZzzz your head is too small to understand the repercussions of this phenomena. There is a possibility than in 100 years 4 legged creatures that look like chickens be the norm. Which would be good, since I like drumsticks preferably.
I guess you and your large head haven't been paying attention to the freak shows at the carnivals...for hundreds if not thousands of years. Two headed snakes, two headed frogs, two headed sheep, two headed turtles, two headed cows, etc. <img src=http://www.flatrock.org.nz/topics/animals/assets/two_headed_goat.jpg> <img src=http://www.breaktaker.com/albums/pictures/animals/Two-HeadedTurtle.jpg> <img src=http://dmla.clan.lib.nv.us/docs/dca/press/images/2calf.jpg>
You still lose. If you were to put all two (whatever) animals together to reproduce you might start a new two (whatever) species with time. Still...the unrefutable fact is that changes happen at the molecular level, but.... ZZzz, I am curious, if the chicken didn't come from the egg, where did it come from ?
I didn't lose because you didn't win anything. "If you were to put all two (whatever) animals together to reproduce you might start a new two (whatever) species with time." If, might, if, might, if, might...ad infinitum. That is your concept of winning? LOL! Chicken eggs come from chickens...not any more complicated than that.
Don't change the perspective of your defeat, that's cheap. Tell us, if the chicken didn't come from the egg, where did it come from ? Stick to the question at hand.
There is no defeat, there is no victory, there are only chickens who lay eggs, those eggs which hatch into chickens...whether they have zero legs, 1 leg, 2 legs, 3 legs, or 4 legs. Since I wasn't there when the first chicken appeared, how would I know where it came from? Maybe a space ship? Maybe God created it? However, I am pretty sure it wasn't from a snake egg.... The question at hand is which came first, and clearly the chicken comes first....
