Pathfinder 1E Improving natural weapons

[cjr88]

So, I'm making a silly character that is a half-orc barbarian/druid that will take feats that give him claws and a bite attacks. But I don't really know a lot things to give me bonuses to natural weapons. It would be a lot of help if I could be pointed in the right direction

Amulet of Mighty Fists.

Well, there's the obvious one... Improved Natural Attack.

That would be a really nice feat if a player could take it XP it's a monster feat

Irrelevant. To quote the Bestiary itself (where the Monster feats appear):

Most of the following feats apply specifically to monsters, although some player characters might qualify for them (particularly Craft Construct).

Note the phrase after "although." If you qualify for the feat, then you can take it- nothing says you have to be a "monster" to do so (and even if it did, guess what: most of the races have listings in the Bestiaries and therefore count as "monsters" in the literal sense).

Improved Natural Attack lists the following Prerequisites: Natural weapon, base attack bonus +4.

Nothing on there about race or creature type. Therefore, if you have one or more natural weapons and a BAB of +4 or higher, you can take the feat. The only kind you can't take it for is an Unarmed Strike, and that's because the feat text itself says so.

Oh, thanks for clearing that up. I've always assumed that player couldn't take monster feats. I'm glad to know I have that option open to me.

I had a half-orc monk with a bite attack and bleed. Bleed was granted by enchanted tooth caps.

Do you know if that is a legal item in pathfinder society?

addendum:
If you take a couple levels of ranger and pick the Natural Attack combat style that apparently unlocks that feat for use, calling it out explicitly. But that does requiring changing class selection.
