Humour among birds Botheration Cruikshank 19th century cartoon

This is a cartoon etching by the well-known Victorian social caricaturist / cartoonist George Cruikshank (1792 - 1878), dated February 1, 1831. (1831 is in the reign of William IV, but most of Cruikshank's artistic work was in the long reign of Queen Victoria.) Cruikshank later produced illustrations for the works of Charles Dickens. Title: Botheration Conversation - Och: look at the Distressed Mother! - Pooh! The hen ar'nt the Mother you goose. - Well then, she's the Parent anyhow! Description: The first speaker suggests that the hen is the mother of the ducklings that are swimming on the pond. The second speaker rejects this, because hens give rise to chicks and not ducklings that swim. The first speaker misunderstands. If the hen isn't the mother, then she must be the father!
