How can I get my Character to actually use serpents fang?

[No I think Not]

Okay, so I've recently started up a new campaign as a sorcerer with the serpentine bloodline. I've gotten in to killing the stag lord, but up to this point I havn't tried using serpents fang. Just for the heck of it I decided to finally test it out on a random encouter of hylacines on the way back to tell Oleg, only to find out that it doesnt work. I've tried everything; unequiping my weapon, then all of my weapons, and then all my gear. But no matter what I do whenever I activate the ability, nothing happens. I don't get a natural weapon, and my character just starts punching things. I tried using my companions (Regongar) grow claws ability and it worked fine.

Am I missing something? Or is it bugged?

I think it will work if you are empty-handed and then you toggle it on? Since it's a "natural weapon", I assume it has to use one's unarmed attack animation as a "base".

I've been reading up on the ability since I origonnally posted this, and from the looks of it, its supposed to give your sorcerror/magus a secondary bite attack, sort of like the animal fury trait that barbarians can get. Which means one of two things, either the ability is bugged and does nothing, or it has such a high attack bonus penalty that you can never hit with it. Ive never seen anyone actually successfully use it though, and Ive used both close range, comepletely unarmed, and medium range weapons like the glaive. I honestly dont know what the problem is, which is a shame since the ability sounds so cool on paper, I was looking forward to a venomancer build.
