Babies start to walk oy by around 11-12 months. Don't pressurize your baby to start early walking. This can affect the bone growth of legs too as they are just learning to balance.
So my advise is let them grow at their own pace

6 mth is too early for walker. Wait till 8 to 9 mth
Moreover walker is associated with many injuries.
Make sure whenever you use , use a triangular walker
