In a well established tank, there should be no need to feed shrimplets. They survive well on biofilm and whatever scraps they can find. If your tank is relatively new, some form of powdered food can also be used, but that means the powder is dispersed throughout the tank and hopefully the shrimplet will be able to forage for it. Spirulina powder, Mosura Bioplus, etc are some examples of powdered food.
Egg yolk has always been abit controversial. Whilst it is readily available in homes, even slightly overfeeding will cause issues in water quality. I would stay away from that option just to retain water clarity, quality and have a peace of mind.
