The evolutionary advance that set the reptiles apart from the amphibians was the development of the amniote or shelled egg which could be laid on land, freeing the reptiles from the necessity of returning to the water as adults for reproduction. The oldest known fossil egg was found in Texas, and dates to the lower Permian period of the earth's history, over 275 million years ago. It is not known from which particular group of Labrynthodont amphibians the reptiles developed; several different families of ancient amphibians seemed to have been developing characteristics at the time similar to those of reptiles.

I would advise you to ignore the writings of the so called evolutionary experts and take the Bible literally.
The 'Millions of years' school are totally wrong.........
John Ings: The earth really is round and flat with a solid dome of sky over it?
The 'Millions of years' school are totally wrong.........
Yeah, all they have is whole libraries full of evidence, while you have faith...
## Faith, once wedded fast to falsehood, hugs it to the last

The Life Cycle of the Chicken

On which day did God make the chicken? Genesis 1:24-31
Which came first the Chicken or the Egg? Genesis 1: 24
The Story of the Egg
Chickens have fathers and mothers just as people do. The father chickens are called roosters. Mother chickens are called hens. Eggs are laid by hens. When a hen lays an egg she is very proud"
Tom: Yeah, and Legge has the volumes of evidence that prove millions of years are wrong. Now if we only had some way to make him show it.

Assuming Chickens would be defined as "modern birds"... Chickens came after the egg.
the Eocene Epoch, 10 million years later, modern birds and mammals and giant birds appeared
Geological Time Capsule Part III by Kenn Oberrecht
Earth's most recent era, the Cenozoic, began 65 million years ago and continues to the present. It's divided into two periods the Tertiary and Quaternary comprising seven epochs.
The age of the mammals dawned and the first primates appeared during the Paleocene Epoch, when the earth's climate ranged from mild to cool. As the climate warmed during the Eocene Epoch, 10 million years later, modern birds and mammals and giant birds appeared.
