The only thing that an egg that someone is likely smuggling in is going to contain is a chicken
and you personally can tell apart chicken eggs from rare lizard eggs or any other egg that might be a similar size to a chicken egg?

Just about the only hard shelled reptile eggs are crocodilian, some turtles, and a few outliers like some geckos. Very few of any of those would be confused with chicken eggs. There also are (hopefully still) wildlife experts as part of border patrol who can and do make those determinations.
That said, there are endangered bird and reptile species that we don’t want trafficked and smuggled eggs get rescued by animal control portions of border security unfortunately all the time and they should keep doing their job.
