Oh my, should I castigate you for turning them into feeder shrimps?
Aside from just setting aside a predator-free tank for them, you may want to also get the water parameters for that pond that they're from so you can try to prepare the tank for them based on those parameters.
I must caution you that betta and shrimp are world apart in their water requirements. Betta can survive in conditions that would kill many other fishes while shrimps will die in conditions that most fishes would just shrug off.
From the size of the eggs, they should hatch directly into shrimplets, without a larvae stage.
They also have a distinctive "hunch back" profile...intriguing...reminds me of the orange shrimp, caridina propinqua, mentioned recently by lucasjiang.
