Question

What to do with a lot of eggs

Answer

If a nest is full of eggs (I'd say more than 6 - although zebra finches can successfully hatch 7 or 8 chicks in a clutch), I would recommend discarding the eggs. Chances are that none of the eggs will get enough heat to develop fully. If you have more zebra finches, you could of course always redistribute the eggs among the different nests, but I would only recommend that to someone breeding for a specific purpose (other than just seeing how the chicks develop).
