It depends on the age of the calves themselves. If they're wearers, yes, definitely; either that or else salt and mineral in the loose form, since trace blocks are really 95% salt and the rest mineral. If the calves are unweaned and still dependent on their dam's milk, no. It's their dams that will need it, not the calves themselves.
Highland calves can and should be weaned between the ages of 6 to 10 months of age.
Once it reaches a certain age, mineral water will be required for their bedtime routine.
They can get grubs at that age if there is no deworming or anti-parasital program on your farm. If you deworm at the appropriate times, especially the cows, then calves at this age will not get grubs. But if you are concerned about bottle calves, then you should see your large animal veterinarian for a dewoming program for these bottle calves of yours. I would also recommend seeing what program is best for lactating cows with calves.
Depends on its sex and age. Older calves weigh more than younger or newborn calves; male calves weigh more than female calves.
3 to 6 months. Bottle calves are weaned from the bottle by the time they reach 3 months of age. They can become feeders then or when they reach "weaning" age which, for most calves that have been on their mother's milk, is the age that they are weaned and sold.

Most calves are weaned at around 6 to 10 months of age.
For as long as they are alive. For instance, cows that live until they are 25 years of age can have 23 calves in their lifetime. Cows that live until they are only 5 will have only had 1 or 2 calves in their life time, and so on.
Depends on its age and sex. Older calves weigh more than younger calves; male calves weigh more than heifer calves. Average birth weight is around 60 to 80 lbs.
The Precambrian is a geological age, not a mineral.
