when saving seeds (like squash) i would recommend cleaning them completely and remove any gunk that might be on them
it is usual to dry seeds out thoroughly so that they don't rot / go mouldy in storage.
i have never actually tried using fresh seed from squash - but you have really got two chances (it will either work or it won't)saving money by growing my own - much of which gets drunk
made loads last year :beer:0 -
Squash (and members of the same family) are notoriously promiscous so they will cross with any plants around them unless the seed is saved properly. So even if the seed does sprout and grow, it may not produce butternut squash
