When they say egg they mean chicken egg, not any kind of egg. It's not completely clear if the first chicken came up from what you'd call your usual chicken egg.

Is it a chicken egg if it came from a chicken, or contains a chicken?

I would think that a chicken egg is a chicken egg if it can't be distinguished from our current chicken eggs, which could be yet another option to consider and might take out the chicken of the discussion.

Regardless, the solutions seem clear if we consider either of your two options.
