Default T1-11 House Siding Questions

Hello:

Re T1-11 house siding.

Is it available paint primed ? Both sides ?

The folks at HD don't have, and don't know.

If I have to prime a few 4x8 foot pieces I'm replacing, should both
sides be primed ? If so, what happens if it rains before I could do ?

Are the vertical edges normally caulked between the sheets prior to nailing
in, or... ?

How are the bottom edges handled; just metal flashing ?
Or seal first, and then the metal flashing ?

Is Tyvek usually applied to the insude of the house studs, first ?

Thanks,
B.
