We do both square bales and roundbales. We normally do 8-10 thousand small square bales and 250 roundbales a year. Every year it varies quite a bit though depending on how much rain (little rain= little to no 2nd cutting). Just about all our square bales gets sold right off the wagon to the Amish. Some of our roundbales get fed to our beef cows, and this is the first year we were able to put some roundbales inside to sell.
I think that answers your question

Squarebales are so much easier to market. Not everyone has the equipment to handle roundbales. On top of that, we never really had the storage for roundbales, and weathered roundbales aren't worth much. Funny you mention about high hay prices last winter. Thanks to that I seen people baling weeds up think year thinking it will be worth something. I suppose it's better than snowballs?
Your wife has drafts? Like huge draft horses?
