Amber Grains Classic 12-5 Pellet is an ideal maintenance ration for mature, full-size horses that are active but not in heavy work—especially for owners who prefer the convenience and cleanliness of a pelleted feed. Designed with similar nutritional principles to the Classic 12-6 Textured formula, this fixed-formula pellet acts as a high-quality supplement to hay, delivering moderate energy while supporting optimal body condition without excessive calories.
The pelleted form helps prevent ingredient sorting, making it a great option for picky eaters and reducing feed waste. It also minimizes the attraction of flies—a common issue with textured feeds—making barn management cleaner and easier. With a balanced inclusion of digestible fiber and added fat, Classic 12-5 supports a regulated, steady release of energy throughout the day, helping your horse maintain stamina without spikes in activity or digestive stress.
Despite being budget-friendly, Classic 12-5 does not compromise on quality. Like all feeds in the Amber Grains line, it features a proprietary blend of probiotics, yeast cultures, and other digestive supports that promote gut health and nutrient absorption. It’s also free from cheap filler fibers like peanut hulls, which are often found in lower-quality economy feeds. This means you’re getting more digestible nutrition per pound—translating to greater value and efficiency on your feed bill.
With its controlled starch levels, this formula is gentle on the digestive system, making it a smart choice for older horses, sensitive horses, or those that don’t need additional weight gain. If you’re seeking a cost-effective, easy-to-feed ration that supports everyday energy needs while keeping things simple and clean in the feed room, Amber Grains Classic 12-5 Pellet is a dependable solution.
