Unlike sagos, agave pups are typically a few inches away from the base of the mother plant, so you should be able to carefully dig a few inches of soil away from around the base of the pup, just enough so you can then grab the base with one hand & gently wiggle it while pulling upward until the roots will come free. Good luck!
