The unhatched egg is named after Maximilien Francois Robespierre, one of the best-known and most influential figures of the French Revolution, who originated the expression "Omelettes are not made without breaking a few eggs".
The name Robespierre would also be the name of Wednesday Addams' classmate in The Addams Family TV series 20 years later.
The unhatched egg manages to break the fourth wall in this short. And so does the hibernating bear, the skinny mean wolf, and the duck mom, all very cleverly done.
The December calendar page hanging on the wall in the first scene is both current and accurate for when "Booby Hatched" first came out. The configuration of the dates match up with those of Dec. 1943. Since all the dates on this sheet except the last one have been "X"-ed out, it's fair to assume that the events in the cartoon are happening on Dec. 31, 1943. The actual release date of "Booby Hatched" was January 1, 1944.
Robespierre mentions the ongoing fuel oil shortage, which wartime cinema audiences would have appreciated. Gasoline, fuel oil, rubber tires, and many more everyday items were rationed for the ongoing war effort, with D Day just around the corner.
