If they are small baled you can tell by weight . If they feel to heavy to lift it needs another day . Should be around 20kg for an average bale
As Forage Trader says weight gives a really good idea of moisture. Without doubt you will get some from under a tree or by the hedge that are heavier, they are the damp ones, if you only have hay for yourself then put them to one side and feed them when you bring the pony in at nights and get rid of them first. This is a really difficult year to be making hay for the first time!
