Now, I don't know for sure but you'd have to check with the hay supplier. Some are laced with rodenticides (if the snake ingested this I don't know what would happed), and some are sprayed with just simple pesticides.
Dust would be another concern I would have but once again I only know that people have allergies to these dusts. If you were to switch I'd keep close eye on how the snake may react. I'd suggest talking to a good small animal vet or equine vet to find out what may be in the hay.
