From what little I know about the hay market, I would say local customers, especially folks with a small number of animals like horses, sheep and goats, and small bales are the way to go. You are right, hauling hay across country is pretty expensive. I lived in Louisiana last summer. The drought situation in the Southwest part of the state was so bad that many farmers were selling off their animals (thus the explanation why more animals didn"t die during Hurricane Rita). Small bales are easier to handle, and there is often more demand locally for them from the small livestock folks, thus the price is probably going to be higher per pound than for the big round and big square bales.
