I'm starting to think that, too, since everything aside from the fact about the clutchkeepers is so damned random. There is no noticeable spawn timers, there are apparently no starter dailies that they're tied to, and so on...
I've been watching this area for hours in the past few days and I've seen tons of other rare tamables show up in the meantime (which I was beaten to the punch to). I just can't believe that a common type of mob would be so sporadic and a no-show for days on end. Sure. It could happen, but I just don't see it.
still no luck for me. logged on at around 5am realm time, quest had reset and no nerubians, though no spiderlings either. 15 min later the nerubian spawn and burning scorpion druids?! wut. No rares up to be speaking of either.
btw..trying to kill the giants for the daily in the front fight mess....not a good idea. 3 of em targeted me for firey boulder ToT
While this feature of the Grimtotem Spirit Guide wasn't exactly intended... - it will still be possible in future for everyone who wishes to tame this NPC to do so
Oh hi! Just registered to try and help on this issue. I happened to log right now and npc scan rang TAMABLE BROODLINGS! . I hadn't grabbed any dailies but the ones up were :
- Wisp away
- Burn Victims
- The harder they fall
- Hostile Elements
Checked at server reset on Zangarmarsh (6am EST), and no broodlings / just clutchkeepers.
So far it seems like people not looking for the broodlings have the best luck at finding them...
EDIT: kind of a long shot but the one quest clutchkeepers are listed as being involved in at wowhead is Fire in the Skies http://www.wowhead.com/quest=29290 ... this is for a different NPC ID (53478) from the one that (I believe) normally inhabits Widow's Clutch (53656).

I saw a Fire Hawk--not sure if before or after daily quest reset, can't recall But it appeared very very briefly over by Skarr's rocks, on the Furnace side. I'm not the only one who saw it; it phased in or spawned on the ground, friendly, then vanished.

That's one of the NPCs that phases in when you unlock the questgivers up there. It's the one you mount for the bombing quest, I believe.
There's a few different ones--Alysrazor's the boss, and then there's hostile Fire Hawks over Fireplume thingy.
But the one I saw was an actual *friendly* one, and it didn't only appear to me--making me think it phased in for a daily nobody's unlocked yet, or something. Although if as Kalliope says it's just there as standard, then I'm not sure if it fits
Well, I'm having little to no luck on finding these little guys.
The clutchkeepers reset at 4am alright, but saw nothing for a hour and nothing still four hours later. I'm half wondering if someone killed them when I wasn't around or if I really have that poor of luck. Bleh.
It's a little over 6 hours since Shu'halo reset, and there have been no clutchkeepers or broodlings during that time (checking every 30-60 minutes or so anyways...).
This is my theory based on what I've seen so far: the Widow's Clutch and surrounding plateau has a "green theme" that is set at each soft server reset, and can be one of the following:
1) Clutchkeepers (maybe 80% likely?)
2) Broodlings (10%?) - unclear whether this will switch over to Clutchkeepers later or if it lasts till next reset.
3) Neither (10%?)
Again this is just speculation based on limited data, obviously...
EDIT: 8 1/2 hours with neither clutchkeepers nor broodlings on Shu'halo...
