Are you sure you have calculated correctly?  I am waiting to put a gilt in with George, and for Feb births I calculated for 4th Feb he would have to cover her on 11th October.   ???  (This isnt meant aggressively just does not read well).

I'm lucky enough to have a nice new barn where they'll be born so shouldn't be too bad.
