I isolated three batches of eggs on leaves, over half the eggs are missing now, I found two shrimp hiding in the breeder net, could they have eaten the eggs?

I would think dwarf shrimp (like cherries) would but ghost and macros species probably would. That being said I have never spawned corys so I don't know how small their eggs are. Are there any snails that could have gotten to them? How big were the shrimp in the net?

They were medium size shrimp, there are snails in my tank everywhere.

snails can eat all type of fish eggs, and that's what my guess would be.
