Please help with straight neck squash questions

Hello All,

I am new to gardening and have about 35 straight neck squash mounds with each mound having 3-5 plants per mound. The squash is starting to come in now and I am cutting them at an average of 5-6 inches long. I have cut a 5 gallon bucket full each day for two days. My questions are:

Will they produce as long as I cut?

Do I need to fertilize to keep them producing?

The squash are great size and taste great but are pale yellow, not the bright, deep yellow I usually see in squash, what can I put on them to make more yellow?

And how to store squash for later use? (preferably for frying)

Thanks in advance for the expert knowledge.

Jason
