It’s not like a (Easter) bunny can lay eggs. Also I don’t recall any egg/chicken references in the related Bible stories (except maybe the rooster). So how did the celebration of Easter with eggs came about internationally?

Easter was an appropriation of the fertility holiday for the Goddes Aester/Eostre which is why its in the Spring. She is a fertility goddess associated with eggs and bunnies. She is also sometimes associated with the Goddesses Isis and Ishtar who were still very popular in the Mediterranean region in the first few centuries AD.
The celebration of Easter was usually done via drug ecstasy fueled orgies so it was quite popular.
