First, my zebra finches laid 7 eggs, but they all died. A few weeks after, they laid 5 more eggs. Is this normal and what should I do about it?

It is called double clutching. If you took the eggs out and the mother thought they still might hatch she may lay more eggs. This depletes calcium. You may remove eggs when they see pushed out of the nest.
It is best to do nothing, and let nature take its course.
