Default Wilted Pups

Hello Everyone,
Yesterday we separated multiple pups from a well established mother. The pups are app. 3.5 ft high and look very healthy. I made sure that each pup had plenty of root system and compost in the relocated planting location. The pups are all planted in a 5-8+hour sunlight spot, and have been watered so that the soil has been moist, not dripping… Today I noticed pretty severe drooping of the leaves on most of the relocated pups. it has been about a day and a half since separation. Their color is good, but I am worried about the drooping leaves. Is this something normal that occurs when separation happens? is this just the plant adapting as it's root structure begins to develop in the new location??? any advice would be great!!

Regards,
