Overview

Sheldon is one of the main protagonists and a chick (inside of an eggshell) from U.S. Acres. He is Booker's brother who refused to hatch completely and appears as a walking egg with chicken feet sticking out of him. Unlike Booker, he is quiet, thoughtful, and introverted. He sometimes sits upon a mound of dirt/grassy knoll (his "Sanctum Sanctorum") and muses upon life. A recurring gag is to portray his shell as the perfect living space within (which is known to have a microwave oven, pinball machine, stove, table tennis table, and an air conditioner), without ever showing it.

Sheldon and Booker enjoy stories about monsters, ninjas, and mutants, which appeal to their masculine interests. They have difficulty getting along with Roy's niece Chloe due to her feminine interests (although, Sheldon hinted to fancy Chloe).

Physical Appearance

Sheldon looks like a typical avian egg, except that his legs appear from two holes at the bottom of the shell. He was once mistaken for a baby turtle.

In Shell Shocked Sheldon, the shell finally hatched, only to reveal another shell underneath.
