From where did the dragons came in Tolkien lore?

Sure this has been talked about a lot but I cant find a proper answer
The flagon with the dragon has the brew that is true Survivor to the battle for the fifth trailer Hobbit Cinema Marathon Hero

I'm pretty sure it was Morgoth who made them. I know that Glaurung was the first dragon, perhaps to look up the history of Glaurung is worth a try. :)

Of the Return of the Noldor: Again, after a hundred years Glaurung, the first of the Uruloki, the fire-drakes of the North, issued from Angband’s gates by night. [Also from Index of names:] Glaurung The first of the Dragons of Morgoth, called the Father of Dragons; in the Dagor Bragollach. . . More?

We can speculate that Morgoth might have bred the first dragons from beasts from the Spring of Arda, perhaps merging their forms with the spirits of corrupted Ainur who had entered into his service.

The dragon or the egg?

... in my experience the dragon claims that dragons came first... and when asked, the egg just sits there, mute. One can guess at Mr Dumpty's answer, however

I've always imagined that the original Dragons lived in the Far East. Morgoth can't create life, so I think he corrupted some good Dragons in what we'd call China today.
