Birds and the Bees

So, Benjamin & i had our first birds and the bees chat.  He was helping me cook some chicken fried rice the other day, which included an egg.
B: Where does an egg come from?
Me: A chicken
B: No, but where?
Me: Inside the chicken
B: How does it get there?
Me: Well....[mom starting to panic at how in depth this conversation with my 3 year old is going to go]...an egg inside a chicken is like when a mommy is pregnant.
B: Then it comes out its' bottom?
Me: Yes, I think so, but I don't know chickens well, so you may have to ask Papa.  =)
