To remove a baby from a zebra succulent, wait until the baby plant has grown a few roots of its own. Gently separate the baby plant from the parent plant using a clean, sharp knife or scissors. Be careful not to damage the roots of either plant. Once the baby plant is separated, you can pot it in its own container with well-draining soil. Place the new plant in a bright, indirect light location and water it sparingly until it becomes established.
