Had a load of hay delivered the other day.I told the guy I thought they felt damp.Now Im kinda new to this farmin stuff and I know the guy pretty well,so I dont think he would intentionaly sell me a bad or dangerous product to get some quick cash,Ive been buying hay fron him for 3yrs now.Anyways he said hay had been on the wagon bout a week in the barn,so he started checking them for heat before putting them in my barn.We found 1 hot one.I was pretty amazed of the heat that came out of that bale.I swear it smoked when I opened it up.Now with this hay being on the wagon for a week and only finding one hot bale should I still be concerned about bales that werent in the least even warm.My barns insured(not that I want it to burn down)but I cant replace my horses.So I been leaving them out to pasture.Is there still a high risk here.Also what determines a dangerous bale? Just damp,wet,dripping?Is there something I can watch for(other than smoke)?If something does happen god forbid is the seller liable?
Thanks
Stan
