Which Came First

The Anunnaki scientists stood above the blue gel incubator , One of them extended her massive clawed hand into the gel and slowly and ever so gently pulled out the tiny egg “this is a culmination of our home seeds and my own spin on things also” she hissed .

“Then I hope this turns out to be whats needed” one of them interjected .

Smiling and with a look of satisfaction and pride she finished carefully Wiping the last of the blue gel from the egg, then the creationist replied to her Colleagues comment.

“Everything before this ,has been 99.9% of what i had planned upon thus far”,
her sharp teeth glistening in the soft light of the nursery as the assembled stared at what had been created ,
The Anunnaki around the tank chuckled to each other .

“it's perfect “,
one of them bellowed gazing upon the egg,
“just what we had envisioned”,
another stated .

“The  very first of its kind and from this natural incubator the first chicken shall hatch, go forth with others and then be fruitful she cooed .

One of Her colleagues turned pale looked at the nurse who still held the egg starring at it lovingly and proceeded to ask cautiously 
“albeit without the giantism or ferocity of those of Nibiru eh”? The other Anunnaki in the lab smiled cautiously at that unnerving thought .

“Of course not” she replied reassuringly. 
“This  will no doubt perplex and amuse our newly seeded children here on earth also”
the nurse laughed ,
 “give them something to think about and muse over”.

“The nurse lifted the egg for all gathered to see and said ,
“As it is this egg 
that has came first,  
the one too begat them all”.
