The Bible does not indicate that the shepherds brought any gifts to Jesus(Luke 2:7-20). They were just thrilled to see this amazing fulfillment of prophecy (Isaiah 9:6)(Isaiah 19:20).

The shepherds did not give Jesus gifts; it was the wise men (Three Kings) who presented gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to Jesus. They offered these gifts as symbols of his royalty, divinity, and eventual sacrifice.
