[color=green]I think the egg came first and that it was a kind of change in a different specie ( turkey maybe..) and that that change became a chicken dry

The classic formulation clearly implies the choice between a chicken or a chicken's egg. Eggs are defined by the animal they come from, not the animal they develop into [1].

A chicken's egg is an egg which comes from a chicken, therefore there must be a chicken to produce a chicken egg, therefore the chicken must come first.

However, a chicken does not necessarily have to come from a chicken's egg. Whatever was the earliest ancestor of the chicken species that we are willing to call not-a-Chicken (possibly a hybrid of the red junglefowl and the grey junglefowl [2]) at some point laid an egg with enough mutations that it grew into the animal we are willing to call a chicken. Thus the sequence goes Hybrid Junglefowl -> Hybrid Junglefowl Egg -> Chicken -> Chicken Egg.

So we see that the chicken comes first.
