A hen does not learn how to lay an egg, she knows. Millions of years of evolution have hard wired an instinct into the bird not only how to lay an egg, but where to build a nest for it, and how to build the nest, its much like with human females and the passing of their eggs, hormones dictate the timing of ovulation, and affect the birds behaviour when the egg is due.
