To catch the Bloodgazer Hatchling pet and start the journey towards the Predatory Bloodgazer mount:

The Matriarch spawns at 35.57, 5.66 in Azsuna. Once she is killed, the Orphaned Bloodgazer will spawn in a static location at 35.52, 7.48. Make sure you have some Azsunian Grapes in your inventory to feed to it.

The Matriarch will only spawn when the World Quest Bloodgazer Swarm! is active. You do not need to be on the quest however. I had done the quest, then found out about the new pets and mounts, and went back to Azsuna to find the Orphaned Bloodgazer still up. Feed it the grapes and the little dino will disappear and the battle pet will be in your journal!

Once you summon the hatchling, a quest will appear to raise him to level 25. This starts a quest chain that Wowhead has listed here that leads to the mount.

You'll need a Azsunian Grapes.

Any idea what the respawn timers on the matriarchs are?

Comment by xRodge

This is buggy.

I waited for ages for the Matriach to spawn, killed enough mobs to finish the WQ.
Eventually the Matriach did spawn, and then I did kill it.
/script print(IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(44882)) showed as false afterwards and pet would not spawn for me.

Edit:

OK, I hung around for a respawn to see if I could get it.
The first time I killed the Matriarch, I had dragged her outside what would be the normal limit of the WQ (to avoid getting other mobs joining in).
This could have been my problem.
I relogged and waited for her, then killed her well inside the normal WQ area.
Sure enough, the pet spawned for me just fine.

As someone noted on the orphan page, killing her doesn't always spawn the orphan (who is targetable with /target). The orphan appeared after I killed her the 3rd time. Others have mentioned /reloading or leaving the WQ zone and returning as solutions as well.

As of Patch 7.1 there are 4 new Falcosaur pets. Each of the pets is associated with a different world quest around the Broken Isles. These pets all provide a quest chain to obtain a different mount. These quest chains require a couple of weeks to complete as each subsequent quest becomes available from your summoned pet after the daily reset after completing the previous quest.

To get each pet, you must first kill the Matriarch in the world quest area, which will cause the NPC version of the pet to spawn. The next step is to go to the NPC and interact with it and feed it its favourite food. If you don't have the food, you won't obtain the pet. There are vendors selling the required foods at the closest flightpaths to each world quest for most of these so just remember to pick some up on your way there!

Important note on orphans: I've encountered issues with the orphans not spawning after killing the matriarch. This isn't affected by the matriarch's nest but it does seem to be affected by getting the last hit on the matriarch. If you can't see the orphan after killing the matriarch then you may need to wait for the respawn. To check if you have completed the requirements to see the orphan run the scripts below.

Snowfeather Hatchling - Snowfeather Swarm!
This pet can be picked up from Orphaned Snowfeather in Highmountain (/way Highmountain 32.5, 28.2) after killing the Snowfeather Matriarch (/way Highmountain 35.1, 21.9). The food it wants is Smoked Elderhorn, which can be picked up from Marius Felbane (/way Highmountain 29.8, 40.0).
Summoning this pet offers you the quest Raising Your Snowfeather which starts the quest chain to obtain Snowfeather Hunter.

Bloodgazer Hatchling - Bloodgazer Swarm!
This pet can be picked up from Orphaned Bloodgazer in Azsuna (/way Azsuna 35.5, 7.5) after killing the Bloodgazer Matriarch (/way Azsuna 35.6, 5.7). The food it wants is Azsunian Grapes, which can be picked up from Nalysse Dawnsorrow (/way Azsuna 47.2, 41.4) - this one is a long way from the quest area so try to plan ahead or you'll be running a long way to find food and will have to kill the matriarch again.
Summoning this pet offers you the quest Raising Your Bloodgazer which starts the quest chain to obtain Predatory Bloodgazer.

Direbeak Hatchling - Direbeak Swarm!
This pet can be picked up from Orphaned Direbeak in Stormheim (/way Stormheim 79.8, 69.6) - jump down from the rocks above to reach here - after killing Direbeak Matriarch (/way Stormheim 79, 76). The food it wants is Pungent Vrykul Gamalost, which can be picked up from Steward Dayton (/way Stormheim 71.6, 60.6).

Sharptalon Hatchling - Sharptalon Swarm!
This pet can be picked up from Orphaned Sharptalon in Val'Sharah (/way Val'Sharah 47.0, 10.5) after killing Sharptalon Matriarch (/way Val'Sharah 48.0, 9.8). This world quest is somewhat awkward to get to but I recommend coming in from Highmountain (glider from a high point in the north-west or water walking around from the coast). The food it wants is Dried Bilberries, which can be picked up from Fialla Sweetberry in Dalaran (/way Dalaran 52.6, 34.4) - there are a variety of vendors in Highmountain who also sell the item should you choose to get to the world quest from there.
Summoning this pet offers you the quest Raising Your Sharptalon which starts the quest chain to obtain Viridian Sharptalon.

Comment by Lunyra

Killed her 5 times on SIlvermoon-EU and nothing spawns.

Relogged, left the WQ Zone nothing helps.

I give up it's not working.

Comment by Ironknee

I killed the Bloodgazer Matriarch twice in a roughly 20 min time period. I was farming the groups for greens and after my second kill I noticed the little orphaned bloodgazer. Had enough time to look him up online to see what it was about, fly out to Nalysse Dawnsorrow (47.2,41.4) to buy my Azsunian Grapes and feed it to him.

Comment by Vaeevictiss

Ive camped this place for hours and have come back every time the quest is active and have yet to even see her. I got the other 3 easily and their matriarchs would respawn every 5-10 minutes it seemed.

Comment by rrrof711

I finally got the pet but the problem I was having was that I couldn't see him from where the Matriarch was. He was hiding and tiny with no marker or anything to make him stand out. He was directly in the center of a patch of rocks and was very hard to see directly south of where the Matriarch spawns on a tiny outcropping. I definitely don't feel bad about not seeing him because he was really well hidden and there was no quest marker or name showing up.
