TLDR
In this article, the authors evaluated 40 rations with varying digestibility and density and found that fill limited intake of these sheep when the digestible energy of the rations was less than 2.5 kcal/g, whereas above this level energy intake was regulated.About:

Regulation of Feed Intake in Dairy Cows. I. Change in Importance of Physical and Physiological Factors with Increasing Digestibility
TL;DR: It was concluded that physical and physiological factors regulating feed intake change in importance with increasing digestibility, and intake appeared to be dependent on metabolic size, production, and digestibility at higher digestibilities.

The regulation of food intake by sheep
TL;DR: A series of experiments with adult sheep were carried out in an attempt to place on a quantitative basis the generalisation that the voluntary food intake of ruminants increases with the quality of the fodder they are given.
