My pair are housed in an 8x4 pen when kept outdoors, and are currently housed in a five by two cattle trough indoors while the weather is too cold and wet right now. I think the 5x5 would be fine for the pair. However, a large redfoot, juvie sulcata, or something similar in size would probably need the entire half (10x5). Maybe separate into three pens, each 10x3. The lenght may help with them finding shadier/sunnier, or drier/moister areas better.
