This year I baled a good number on the tough side. They will heat and you can smell them for a few days but I have never had one burn. Now if I stored them in a shed piled up they would for sure burn. If hay has been stored for some time and is cool there is little to no chance of fire. Its the recently baled stuff that could burn if its to wet. Once it goes thru its heat cycle its safe.
