Since rabbits don't lay eggs, why does the Easter bunny carry eggs?

In response to last week's question, ”Since rabbits don't lay eggs, why does the Easter bunny carry eggs?”, my birthday bud Jon, thinking like the Chick-Fil-A cows, wrote, “They would rather you eat the eggs than eat the bunnies!” My cousin Valarie added, “Couldn't you more easily and less discriminately give away kittens than human babies? So naturally a rabbit can dispense inferior chicks' eggs rather than his own flesh-and-blood bunnies.”

My sailing friend Scott found the emotional explanation (and gained a style-point for great vocabulary), “To assuage the jealousy” while my dad’s beach buddy Bob, was less concerned when he responded, “You just don't get the "YOKE."

Regarding the delivery of the eggs, my friend Tracey concluded that, “Because the chicken doesn't have arms, let alone hands! The bunny is being a good friend.” My dad thought there was financial gain involved, writing,”The Easter bunny is a UPS agent for the Hen.”

My friend Royce decided, “It's a left wing liberal plot to encourage gender change.”

My temple friend Addie knew that, “The bunny stole the eggs from our Passover Seders. Easter always comes after the Seder so that the rabbit has time to dye all those eggs from the Seder service, don'tcha see?!”

“The real story,” according to my flying friend Ted, “is that rabbits and eggs are symbols of fertility and most species start procreating in the Springtime (except if you are a married human). However, the Easter Rabbit was worn out from doing what rabbits are known for and needed to find an alternate means of propagating life on Earth. So the Bunny uses the egg to continue her mission of overpopulation even if they are chickens. Try telling that one to your kids!”
