Photo of moving seedlings? too much of a good thing...

Ok, maybe I have found a downside to the hardware cloth boxes....here is a pic of this years lilies sprouting...this is a VERY vigorous (probably tetraploid) asiatic that is coming up....it was planted 5 bulbs in a 12" sqare box. I guess I should have moved a couple at the end of the season last year.....I don't even see the big stems coming up - only smaller sprouts here. Any ideas on the best way to move these out without damaging too many? Should I just sacrafice one in one corner to be able to get the others out with less damage? I f I can get them out.....anyone want to trade for some 'Pisa'
