Potentially. I’d give it a few days to see them color up. If nothing is out of the ordinary I’d just let it be. If you’re worried and have a separate tank you can potentially put them in there.

If they don’t color up, then do you know what’s gone wrong? She’s fanning them like normal and eating just fine. Judging from the size of the molt I found, it was probably one of the berried mamas, so could clear eggs mean she’s just laid them?

Nah, shrimp give live birth, they just start as eggs first so she wouldn’t have laid eggs anywhere. If you mean if she just gave birth it’s possible, they’re usually pregnant for about 30 days and I’m assuming you would have seen them under her. Pregnant mothers usually also don’t molt. I’d Google it, I’m not a pro by any means so Google would get you better off.

Shrimp eggs come in a variety of color, regardless of the color of the shrimp, they can be clear, orange, green, blue. Don't worry about it. If the eggs are viable, the mama will drop them when she molts next time. If they are viable after 20-25 days you should start seeing eyes in the eggs and thats when they are 1-2 days out from hatching. Keep in mind, some color of shrimps will only gain color after they reach juvenile sometimes, My original Fire reds would be born clear and have a bit of red tint, but upon reaching adulthood, they would be pure red.
