Weaning is when you take the young animal away from its mother so that she stops feeding the young with her milk. It is a natural process that can be seen even in domesticated cats and dogs. Weaning and refusal to nurse maturing youngsters causes the menstrual cycle to start again and she can either be bred again if she's breeding stock, or she can be used for work if it's a horse or dog. ALL animals do this naturally, but some animals are separated by humans to speed up the process a little. (Note: Weaning too early, however, can adversely affect young babies.) Weaning is possible when other milk supplies such as separated milk are available or when a young animal stops relying on milk and starts eating a diet of solid foods.
Note: The same explanation applies to human babies and mothers. Even if bottle-fed, all babies go through weaning. If fed an adequate in-between mixture of soft foods leading to an diet of solid foods, weaning proceeds fairly easily.

This all depends on the age that the calf was weaned and its breeding. Sex is irrelevant for this question, though heifers tend to weigh around 25 to 30 lbs less than bull or steer calves. British beef calves can weigh around 500 to 600 lbs when they are weaned around 6 months of age; when weaned at around 10 months of age, they can weigh around 750 to 800 lbs. Continentals on the other hand, will weigh around 700 to 750 at 6 months of age, and up to 900 lbs if they aren't weaned until they're around 10 months of age. Beef calves that are weaned earlier will weigh less than those that are weaned between 6 and 10 months of age. Dairy calves, which are weaned off the bottle or bucket, are often lighter. Holstein and Brown Swiss calves, when weaned at 3 months of age, will weigh around 200-275 lbs; Jersey calves weaned at the same age will more often weigh only 150 to 200 lbs. Remember thus: The smaller the calf, the lighter the weights. The earlier the calf is weaned, the lighter the calf will weight. And vice versa for both.
