When some animals give birth, they do so in the form of laying eggs. However, these eggs start out essentially lifeless. It takes some time before the living being that is inside will come out of them.
In media though, there are characters that are living eggs with a face and possibly legs. These eggs aren't necessarily likely to hatch into anything else, but most of them are still just as fragile as a regular egg, and they know this for a fact. As such, they often take as many precautions to make sure they don't accidentally shatter.
There may or may not be some crossover with Eggshell Clothing, in which the egg itself isn't alive, but the character "wears" it so they look like a walking egg.
The version with limbs may resemble a Cephalothorax.
Subtrope to Anthropomorphic Food. Not to be confused with the main antagonist of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, Dr. Eggman, the walrus, nor closeted Transgender folk.

The Tales from the Goose Lady short "The Egg Who Would Be King" consists of a bizarre twist on Humpty Dumpty where the egg-man was laid by a chicken who was jealous of the goose that laid golden eggs. After his mother boots him out due to branding him another failure in laying valuable eggs, Humpty then decides to become King of Fairy Tale Land, only for his subjects to knock him off his wall via Produce Pelting after they get sick of their king being too lazy to do anything about their problems.

There's a Taiwanese Doraemon knockoff, titled "IQ Egg" (IQ蛋) where Doraemon was changed from a robot cat to a giant, human-sized sentient egg with pockets for retrieving gadgets. No, not making this up. Apparently the magazine's publishers ran into licensing issues for Doraemon, so they created a Captain Ersatz by literally drawing over existing Doraemon artwork.

Pokémon:
Zigzagged with the Pokémon Exeggcute. It consists of six sentient eggs, of which some have visible cracks. However, certain Pokédex entries specify them more as being seeds, while still referring to them as the egg Pokémon. Other entries call them eggs, leaving it up to ambiguous as to whether or not they actually are eggs.
Downplayed with Chansey, who is classified as the "Egg Pokémon", being egg-shaped and having one in her pouch. Although besides those indicators, it is unclear whether or not she is supposed to literally be an egg or any other sort of creature.
Togepi skirts on the edge of this trope— it resembles a walking cracked egg, with its yellow body as the "yolk", but its evolutions make it clear that it's simply a creature that wears Eggshell Clothing.

Nightmare Beings
One dream was about a two-legged egg creature with big black lips and a silly straw extending from its torso that it used to drink its own yolk. It fell and broke open, revealing it was filled with worms all along.
Another featured a nature documentary about some sort of bird whose eggs walked around on insect-like legs and formed a centipede-like chain.

Edgar "Eggsy" Fullerton Young from Harley Quinn is possibly the post-Flashpoint version of Egg-Fu, although the characters have little in common. Eggsy is a benevolent small-time American Mad Scientist who happens, for never-explained reasons, to be a sentient egg in Power Armor, and becomes one of Harley's little gang of weirdos in Coney Island.

Una película de huevos and its sequels, like Huevocartoon TV feature walking, talking eggs, but feature them in the human world with the Animal Talk trope in play. Also, most unhatched eggs have some attributes which help identify their true animal species. Reptilian eggs, for example, are usually green in coloration, have slit pupils, sharp teeth, and, in Serp's case, fully developed tails signaling the impending emergence of the hatchling inside.
