It would be a good idea. It would create less stress on the new moms and babies if the bigger steers aren't in there with them, as the steers may pose a threat to the newly born calf and cause Momma to get a little more antsier than necessary.

What weight does a heifer have to be at calving?

That really depends on the breed of the heifer and her age. At the most she should be around 24 months of age when she calves. Brahman and Brahman-influenced heifers should be a few months older. Weight really isn't a factor in this type of question.

Why wean a calf?

Because it's less work to have a calf-turned adult cow, bull, steer or heifer, forage on its own than to give it milk every day. Besides, the cow that is close to calving can't afford to have milk for both her older offspring and her new calf, so the older calf has to be weaned.

How many cows are milked daily?

This question is impossible to answer because the number of cows per farm differs, as well as number of cows on farm per day, since cows that were milked one day wouldn't be milked the next or vice versa because either they'd be culled and sold, come down with a sickness, be of the time to be dried up before calving, or start giving milk as heifers or (for older cows) after calving, etc.
