With sterile scissors cut the cord between them, and bathe the area with diluted disinfectant of some sort to prevent bacteria setting in. Cut the cord as close to the live hatchling as you possible can without causing bleeding etc.
Also keep the live one hydrated even if this means dropping water over the nares.
