Chickens lay eggs almost everyday and if those eggs are fertilized they will hatch 21 days from the day the broody hen sets on them. On my farm I have had a hatch of 6 chicks arrive on December 24 at 11PM.

How old does a baby chicken need to be to leave its mum?
Many chicks never know their mother. Most chicks are artificially incubated and are raised in a brooder with other chicks their own age. Chicks hatched by a broody hen in the chicken coop often stay with "mom" until they are full grown at the age of 6 to 8 months old and will often stay with "mom" all their lives. This is basically just for companionship as the mother hen does not feed her chicks, they are born knowing how and what to eat.
Is it a learned or an instinctive behavior that enables a bird to build its own nest?
A baby learns it from its mother while it is young as it learns everything else. A bird building a nest is an instinctive behavior they are not taught how to do it they just know how to do it. The nest for chicks is prepared before they are born and the chicks leave before more chicks are born so they don't have the opportunity to learn in the sense humans learn at school, how to build a nest.
