I have 14 or so in our back yard - they are ALL related except one and they ALL wake up at differnt times and speeds.. Just let them be and it should all work out... what I do, sometimes, is afer they wake up and still a little sleepy.. I give them a good soak - not too deep - gives them a chance to drink and wake up a little,,, they will crawl out when they are ready - then I just leave them alone.. Water is important and I also offer them food... Very often, they won't eat until they really wake up...

Kinda like us in the morning...
