Unless they lied it would be the same species. Would they conclude an egg was a different species than a chicken?
There are no examples of transitionary fossils even though they have been looking for 150 years when there should be millions of examples over billions and billions of years.
Lie? They wouldn't be lying if they didn't make (what would probably be) a difficult assumption. It would simply be a case of them not knowing.
Would they conclude an egg was a different species than a chicken?
You really are stuck on this chicken thing, aren't you ?
The egg is only a shell that contains a chicken embryo. One might as well ask if they would conclude that a cocoon was a different species than a butterfly.

As I've already stated, I am not arguing that point at all.
