Unfortunately, he happears to have gone to a gay bar full of cocks. I think the egg is looking to get laid. Unfortunately, he happears to have gone to a gay bar full of cocks.

Well, what would be "baby-faced" for chickens? Considering that chickens don't give birth to baby chicks, but rather to eggs (maybe "give birth to" isn't the right term here, but you know what I mean), a "baby-faced" character in the chicken world would have a face resembling not a baby chick's, but of an egg. This (presumably adult) chicken has a face that just happens to look like it popped out of a mother hen just yesterday, so that's why he's being carded more than the average chicken.

Not that there would be much difference between a chicken egg and a not-quite-a-chicken egg, but I've never interpreted the question to include eggs of all kinds. Anyway, I lol'd at this comic.

It reminds me of Krang (from the 80's cartoon "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles") and the body he inhabited. As for Flygzox and Rupsgillier, you're on your own there.

Since God created Adam as an adult, we can assume he did likewise with all the other creatures. I'm personally believe in evolution, and view all creation theories as myths started by superstitious primitive man.

Which it would be, since the egg that contained the first chicken was laid by something that wasn't quite a chicken yet.
