hay storage

Thoughts on storing hay. I have a space 16 x7 ish and want to store square bales of hay. About a 6' lid. The idea is to fill this over the summer to be ready for next winter. Any considerations regarding static, dust, and stacking? I'm thinking of an LED fixture and water resistant J-boxes which ought to seal. I'll get and cut to fit hardwood pallets for a floor.

I'm thinking to cut in a window for ventilation. The door is under a lean-to, so protected from wdather, but should get air.

When I say dry, I am not meaning like wet from rain. I am meaning that it cannot be green anymore, it has to be completely dehydrated. Then also it has to be dry from any rain. It will be bundled tightly so having ventilation will not do any good because the air circulation will not get inside your bails. The hay must be completely dehydrated before it is bailed.

Thanks for the detail. I'll keep that in mind.
