Head north and kill crabs for Chitterspine Roe. Then head back south and toss the Roe to the aggressive snapdragons. You have to directly hit them or it won't count and you'll waste a Roe.

In case it does not count, even when direct hitting, giving up and redoing the quest helped for me
There are also Savage Snapdragons on the east side of Nazjatar, this won't work with them. You need the ones around the quest area only.

What to do
Description
It's time for the snapdragons to feed, but it's a job best left to someone a little more expendable. The beasts will eat anything, including your arm if you don't move it away quickly enough. Luckily for you, they've developed a taste for Chitterspine Roe.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Scouting Undercover
Entering the stronghold alone would be a death wish. The Zanj'ir slaughter outsiders on sight. The only way to get in without being killed is to appear to be under the effects of a zoatroid. Even then, the mind-shackled are put to work.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Working with Purpose
It seems the Shirakess are never satisfied with the number of pearls we source for them. They're always demanding more. Before you came along, it was my job to crawl around the cavern, cracking open clams. So you see, you have some purpose, other than being a mindless sack of flesh.
