20 degrees is no problem for holstein calves. I've had them in hutches in below 0 temps as soon as they were dry enough to leave the barn. Draft free housing and plenty of dry bedding.

i am feeding them 4 pints of the powdered milk replacer a day. once in the morning and once in the evening. by half water i mean that i give them half a cup of the powder to2 pints and another half to a full bottle in the evening.

They should be getting 4 pints twice a day. You should also have water, leafy 2nd or 3rd crop hay, and a grain starter available for them to work on between feedings if they are nearing 2 weeks old or better.
