sago palms

Question

This palm produced multi heads
I was going to sell the heads (there are 3 plus original tree) and have buyer dig up
after reading your article I was wondering

1. The approx age of this saga
2. If the heads are dug up – can they be planted and live ?
3. If the heads are dug up – will it kill the original tree
4. What are your recommendations?
5. Do I have males or females (looks like males to me)
6. If I can do something with this tree (partial removal – re placement ) do you recommend it is done with a professional landscaper?

I really do not want to kill something so old and beautiful – however I am re-doing my yard and this saga is in an awkward place – I appreciate all your help – can you please email me at [e-mail]
