This is not an idiom, so it means what it says. Something is as rare or hard to find as teeth on a female chicken (or any chicken) - chickens are birds, and do not have teeth.

Why is mare the answer to teeth is to hen as nest is to?

The analogy compares relationships: "teeth" belong to "hen" as "nest" belongs to "mare." Just as hens have teeth in a figurative sense (as in the term "hen's teeth," which are rare), mares (female horses) have "nests" in the form of their foals or the areas where they give birth. Therefore, "mare" is the answer because it completes the relationship in the same way.
