Watch closely. Sometimes your barbarian "leans forward". Check your log then. Most of the time she will not hit since the attack is made at -5 and even if, she does not do a lot of damage at early levels.

With growing strength bonuses, it will be more noticable.

Wait...beast totem? Yes, you need to be unarmed for that or have one hand free, sorry.

the bite happens on a full round aatack so no moving, claws require being unarmed?

Animal rage bit attack animation will show your character leaning/nodding and if hits you'll see the damage done.

only works if your character doesn't move in the round where he attacks (as others have said full attack)

Animal rage isn't really good, but can be used to useful effect if you give your barb the winter wolf cloak that adds cold damage and trips to your bite attacks.

that's correct.

Animal fury if you character doesn't move is an extra attack at -5, but you still get your normal weapon swings on top of that, so no downside. Totem replaces your weapon swings with inferior claw attacks.

You also need to be in rage mode for those feats to work.

Given that you VERY RARELY run out of rage, that's not really an issue.

well there is a downside...bite has a tiny range so if you are enlarged with a 2h your character moves closer to do their bite move

only if your barb has a reach weapon, otherwise no. Your bite as the same reach as your hand to hand weapons.
