MILLIONS OF YEAS AGO

MILLIONS OF YEARS PASSED
- Creatures learned to breath out of water
- Creatures enjoyed dry land and wanted to colonize it
- One Problem
- They had to return back to sea to lay eggs
- Problem solved...Hard Shell Eggs appeared
- Dry land can now be colonized
So basically there was no selection..but rather..a wanted and well thought solution to the problem
WHO REALIZED THE EGGS WERE NOT HATCHING? ... WHO GAVE THE FEEDBACK...
and no body not you nor anybody else knows more than anybody else because at the time being we can only guess..

You're assuming workflow is ...
Soft egg ----------------> omg suddenly hard eggs!
When it's more like ...
Soft egg --------> mutated egg ---------> mutated egg ----------> mutated egg ---------> mutated egg --------> harder egg ---------> mutated egg -------> mutated egg ---------> omg hard eggs!
This would be over a massive amount of time as far as human is concerned. Part of the problem is a human can't really fathom minute changes over hundreds of thousands of years.

For whatever reason individuals started laying their eggs on land. Maybe it was more secure than the ocean? I don't know....
