What is a flake of hay? A flake of hay is essentially a slice of a bale of hay. When a bale is made in the field by the baler, it's layered with about 10 - 13 clumps of hay, compressed, tied witâ¦h wire or twine, and spit out in the rectangular shape you're used to seeing. When the twine is cut, the hay tends to come apart in those layers, each of which is about 3-4 thick, which we call flakes.
