When is chicken, meat, fish normally introduced?

My son is about to turn 6mths in a few weeks. I have been making his sweet potato, squash, peas and carrots.... which he's was introduced to a little over a month ago and it's been great. Just wondering what and when other moms have started with meats, poultry and fish...

We did meat once he was able to pick up finger food an masticate a bit (with teeth or gums). Tiny pieces at first. Maybe 8-9 months? You might try puffs/cheerios first as a finger food, since you don't have to chew them.
