General Other plants in hay?

I've bought fresh bales of hay from three area farmers/feed stores. All claimed to be selling meadow grass or bluegrass. One bale from one farmer was loaded with alfalfa. What really bothered me was that he sells a large volume of it to rabbit owners. I donated the whole bale to my local animal control and told them there was a high percentage of alfalfa in it. They said they get in a lot of bunnies so they understood that it should not be fed to adults guinea pigs or rabbits. If it wasn't too costly, I'd donate it. If it cost a lot, I'd return it for a refund since you don't want to feed that to adults.
 
The top two photos look like clover. Clover is fine for pigs. It's not like it's in any huge quantity?

However, I do see some weeds in the second two photos. If there are a lot of those, I would send it back.
