That all depends on the gender of that calf. Bull or heifer or steer?
The average birthweight of a Hereford calf is around 45 to 80 lbs, depending on the genetics influenced by the dam and sire of that calf. This is for both horned and polled cattle of this breed.
The average yearling weight of a Wagyu bovine is around 700 lbs, depending on sex (bulls>steers>heifers). Relatively speaking, these yearling weights are comparable to other similar-sized British breeds like Hereford, Shorthorn and even Angus.

A yearling. Bulls are yearling bulls, heifers yearling heifers (or just heifers). Steers are often just called steers, sometimes yearling steers if you want to be more precise.
Depends on the breed. Some yearling bulls can weigh over 800 lbs; others closer to 2000 lbs.

No. A Hereford cow will only give birth to a Hereford-Limousin cross calf if bred to a Limousin bull. Only a Limousin cow can give birth to a Limousin calf--IF she's bred to a Limousin bull. Just like a Hereford cow can only give birth to a Hereford calf if bred to a Hereford bull. Otherwise, she too (referring to the Limousin cow) can give birth to Hereford-Limousin-cross calf if bred to a Hereford bull.

Hereford is a pure breed, and the origin of the colour pattern of the Hereford breed is pretty much unknown. So you can't find two breeds to cross to find Hereford, unless you can find a Hereford cow and a Hereford bull and "find" a Hereford calf!
"Maverick" usually refers to an unbranded calf or yearling.
Depends on the breed. Some yearling bulls can weigh over 800 lbs; others closer to 2000 lbs.
Depends on the breed and each individual bull. Some may only weigh around 1000 lbs, others may weigh over 2000 lbs. Usually the higher weaning weights (or 205-day weight) a bull calf has, the higher the yearling weight he'll have.
Most Hereford bulls weigh around 2600 lb.
