In my personal opinion, I believe it is okay to give them dry yeast. It will give them some vitamin B.

I don't think that it would harm them, but it wouldn't really do much for their diet. It does have vitamin b but it would be a lot easier to just stick with veggies, protein (some meats, bugs, nuts, ect.), and a calcium source. Yeast won't replace anything on that list and won't really help in anyway. It's kinda like if you just ate a mouthful of flour each day alongside a healthy diet, not gonna kill you but really no reason to.
