They have to be bottle fed milk replacer that is specially made for them. Milk replacer usually comes in a powder formula which is mixed with water and given to the calf accordingly.

No, absolutely not. A calf should be given milk formula designed for calves and calves ONLY, not for human babies. You could kill a calf if you give it baby formula because it lacks certain nutrients that calves need that human babies don't need or need less of than a calf does.
A calf needs milk until he's 3 months of age, but most producers like to have them on the cow for another three to five months before weaning them.

Who told you that a calf doesn't need it's mother? Every calf needs a cow to properly take care of it, no matter if it's their own or a surrogate cow-mom. Ideally you should have a cow already there to adopt that calf. But, if that's not obtainable, you need shelter, milk replacer, feed, water, and a good understanding of how to raise a bum/orphan calf so that it doesn't get sick and die on you.
Should be at least 4 pints
