If you can not cut the skin with your thumb nail I think it is ripe enough to eat.

Found this on google.

"To check ripeness, try denting the squash skin with your thumbnail; if it is difficult, the butternut is prime to harvest. The skin of a mature squash is dull, not shiny. By the time harvest approaches, the stem and vines will have dried out and turned hard.
