Pearl, my female Silver Molly, had babies overnight and some are not developed enough (eggs), and some are dead. Is this a problem or they give birth like this?

That is not normal, that is a miscarriage. Was she stressed in any way? What is your tank size, parameters, is it cycled, and what other fish do you have?

Agreed with above post. It sounds like she had a miscarriage if they're still some as "eggs." Are there any fish bullying her?

No, none are bullying her.

How long has your tank been set up? How many gallons is it?

Answering the questions, I and KingD asked would be helpful in determining why this happened and hopefully preventing it in the future.
