This depends on when you first put the calf on the bottle. But mainly, it'll be a few months that a calf goes from being dependent on the bottle to being fed as a feeder calf.

How long does it take for a cows milk sac to dry up?

A few weeks. Often the calf will die of starvation before then, if you either don't milk the cow out and tube the calf with her milk, try to make the calf suckle as much as you can, or if you don't bottle-feed the calf. So make sure you are caring for the calf if the calf can't suckle from his momma.

It all depends on the breed, the genetics of that calf, the health of the calf, and the quality/type of feed you're feeding it. Thus it could take anywhere from three months to eight to get a calf to be at that target weight.

Heiffer had calf 4 weeks premature. had to take the calf away to bottle feed it. it has been away from mother for 7 days and is now able to stand can we put him back and will she restart lactation?

Unfortunately, the heifer is very unlikely to accept the calf back at this point. A mother cow bonds with her calf within the first few hours after birth; if this was disrupted, the cow will reject the calf if reintroduced later. Also, if the cow has stopped lactating, she is very unlikely to restart lactation.

A cow looses her two month old calf how long does it take her to dry up and what is the risk factor for mastis?

It can take a couple of months for her to dry up. There is a high risk of mastitis, your best option is to get a calf and try to have her adopt it, we have done this many times on our beef farm. You will have to help the calf out and try to keep her from hurting it, you can even restrain the cow for the calf to suck. This is a long process and it need a lot of patience. I hope this helps, if you have any questions please ask!
