What does a flake of hay look like?
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 with 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".
How much to feed a goat that is zero grazed?
I feed my goats morning and evening. I feed 1-2 cups of grain and a flake or two of alfalfa hay (they won't eat the grass hay, that's left for the other animals who share the pen). In the evening I'll give them another flake or two of hay, and if it's going to be really cold, I'll give them another cup of grain. The waterer is heated and I top it off every time I feed them.
How many flakes of hay should you feed your horse?
Feeding hay by the flake is a very flawed method and usually results in the horse getting too much or too little forage. You should always feed a horse based on weight. A horse needs 1 to 3% of it's body-weight in food daily, hay should make up from 100% to at the very least 60% of the diet.
How many flakes of hay is in 15 pounds?
about 3-4 flakes depending on the crop of hay This really depends on the hay quality, cutting of hay, species of forages in the hay and the baler. I've had 80 # bales with 20 flakes in a bale and others with 5 flakes. the same baler with the same settings can also have bales weighing from 50# to 100#. The best thing to do is take a representative sampling from the bales, weigh them and weigh individual flake and take an average.

What does flakes of hay mean?
A Flake of hay is a 3 to 4 inches thick (typically, but can be thinner) and is made as the hay is baled. The baler picks up clumps or patches of hay and compresses them into bales in layers. Once the bale is finished it is tied up into a neat rectangular package. When you cut the ties on the hay it will come apart a bit and you can see each flake that went into the bale. Many people, especially horse people tend to feed horses by the flake, which is an incorrect way to feed animals as each flake may weight out differently even though they are the same overall dimensions. Flakes are also called Slices, pats, sections, leaves (or leafs), or biscuits, depending on what part of the world you live in.

This could ba another term for a flake of hay or a pat of hay. I'm sure there are other terms too.

These individual sections are each several inches thick and can be referred to as a pat or flake or possibly a lap. These sections are easy to pick up and move around. Depending on how large the animal being fed is, one or more sections may be fed to an individual amimal.
