I notice that in monster stat blocks it usually lists several natural attacks at the same attack bonus. How do I handle these attacks if the monster uses a move action? Do they still get all of them?

Not usually, no.
They use a standard action to make a single attack. They can freely pick whichever one of their options is the one they'd like to use.

The general rule in Pathfinder is that you must use the Full Attack action, which is a full-round action, in order to get more than one attack.
If a monster or a PC performs a move action, whether it's to actually move or not, then they are left with only a standard action, which they can use to make a single attack.
Exceptions exist, and are called out as such.
Alright that's what I thought and that's what I've always done, I just happened to question if I was doing it right recently. Thanx:)
