I've never had any issues with them overeating. When they're full, they'll stop.
Shew, I've got one that'll eat herself into a stupor... been doing it since she was about a week old. She doesn't want anything to do with me unless I have food... and then she'll peck my leg for coming to visit without a snack.

We have 13, and our food trough holds about 8 cups... fill it up every couple days. They get watermelon or blueberries and bananas as a snack.
