Block/Item Models have no concept of animation. So you gotta be a lot more specific with what you are using to do that animation.

Hmm, dunno if they have a slot for items to render (or if you can attach an item renderer to one of their limbs).
If not, best I can think of is having the item be part of the model, always scaling it to 0 in the animations except in the one where you need it.
