Internal temperatures of 110 F in the first five days after baling are quite common in our region and are not a concern. Hay bale temperatures of 120 to 130 F will likely result in mold growth and will make the protein in the hay less available to the animals. But at those temperatures, there still is not a danger of fire. The concern is if mold growth causes the temperature to go even higher.
I hear lots say their bales weigh 1800lbs. moisture makes a big difference.hay that is baled damp will weigh more but will mold. I have heard the 2000lb Figure from many hay baler dealers.To this time I have never encountered a 2000lb bale that was baled dry and is grass.
