Answers:
Don't take offence, but seriously funny question lol!. Actually, it's a good question and I can answer this for you!. There are a number of ways,

first, if you're worried about defrosting all of them, you can always stick a knife between the sausages to break them apart!. I do it quite often!.

Second, you can run hot water over the bag where the sausages you want to defrost are!. Once they break free from the rest, take them out of the bag!.

Sausages are usually fully cooked, so there's really not much to worry about!. Personally, instead of continuing to defrost the sausages you plan to eat, I cut a slit in them lengthwise, and place them on the grill, YUMMM

Hope this helpsWww@FoodAQ@Com

Okay, this takes a little patience and talent!.!.!.!.you have both! First you take out the bag of sausages and let them sit on the cupboard for about half an hour!. No more than that!. They have softened a bit, and this is where you get talented!. Take a sharp knife and figure out where the three easiest to get off are!. If they are all in a line together that is the best!. With your knife tip, kinda wedge the tip between sausage number three and four!. Loosen up the frozen-ness between these two sausages, and keep doing that up and down the sausage until you have "freed" the sausages from each other!. Gently move the knife tip under the three top sausages and kinda pry them off the whole frozen lump of sausages!. You just keep prying, carefully (that's where the patience comes in) edging and wiggling the three sausages free of the frozen mass!. It will take a while and you will be able to get the three that you want!. Soon your sausages will be free for you to cook and enjoy (they will be a bit frozen!!) AND the rest of the sausages will be frozen and you return them to the freezer!. Of course you know not to do this again, but I sometimes throw the whole package of food into the freezer and forget to portion out the package!. That's how I know how to fix it too! :) Enjoy those sausages!Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can set them out for a few hours but make sure their temp doesn't drop too far!. After setting them out for a while put them in the fridge to thaw enough so you can break a few off!. Then put the rest back in the freezer immediately!.

The last thing you want to do is to heat them up in the microwave or with any high temp method!. This will increase the chances of bacteria setting in!.

also make sure you put the rest in an air tight container with as little air inside as possible!. The more air is around them the more likely you will have freezer burn!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Try using a hair dryer to only warm up a little section of the bag!. You can also get a big bowl of hot water and try only stick a corner of the bag in!.

If you give up and decide just to defrost the whole thing, just run it under hot water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That should have been done before you froze them( portioned out)!.
Now you have to defrost the whole bag!.
If you do it correctly you can re-freeze them( contrary to popular belief)!.
defrost in the refrigerator ONLY!.
Then portion them out and refreeze them!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Put the whole bag in the micro, 1 min!. youll be able to breake off what you need, put back in freezer, I do it all the time, no problems mate!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
