You can do pushups whenever you want, there is no negative effect that will happen. Remember to keep a good form and that will improve your strength overtime.
Judging someone doesn't define who they are, it defines who YOU are.

I don't do them till 2-3 days after a chest day because I feel after I worked out my chest I need give it time to rest that's just me though almost everyone feels its ok to do them everyday.

Depends on your goals. For increasing numbers, follow the Grease the Groove training ideology.
For hypertrophic reasons, take a day or two of rest in between pushup sessions. Though I would encourage you to join a gym for best results. Or even just buy a power rack + bench + olympic barbell and weight set and lift at home.
