I start working mine on mock hunts at 10-12 weeks old w/ tied shoats, I try to show them at least 3 shoats between 3-5 months of age then I put em up and let em grow. When I tote em on mock hunts I try to make the mock hunt as realistic as possible to a real hunt. Usually around 7-8months I start totin em to the big woods with the grown dogs, sometimes sooner than that but I do not let em run with the big dogs until I feel they are ready, I will turn em to a bay and let em mess around and be pups while the big dogs are out hunting. I agree that its never too early to introduce em to the big woods just to let em get a feel for things.
