We are not told if the shepherds brought any presents to the Baby Jesus. Shepherds were poor people and if they had something to give it would have been left at home with their family. They were "working" with the flocks of sheep on that night and it was a very sudden happening that the angel came to them. They hurriedly went to Bethlehem and the only thing they gave the Baby Jesus was their worship. On the other hand the wise men from the east did bring presents to the new born King.
