    I'd leave them. If they have not pipped by the time you get back, you can consider cutting if you are comfortable with it. Just ensure you air the tub and wipe any condensation off the lid before you leave. They will be fine.

    Re: Going away on day 53....

    Thanks... I was thinking of cutting at day 53 so they would have 2 days to come out before I left on my trip and I would be able to put them in tubs....

    I'm new to this, but would leave them alone. They'll come out when theyre ready whether you cut or not. I cut on day 53 and didn't have a pip until 55 or 56.

    If you can't check on them everyday after you cut till they pip, I would wait till you can before I'd cut. Just cause you cut early does not mean they will pip early. Sometimes they take over a week to pip after cutting at day ~52- 53.

    If you will be back on Day 58, I would leave them be and see where they are when you get back.

    We cut on day 53, went away for 4 days, and came back to a tub full of little noodles. They should be just fine

    I'd just leave them be. Like someone else said, air the tub out and wipe any condensation off the lid before you go.
    Also, I noticed you said you would give them 2 days to come out and put them in their own tubs. I've read that once they emerge, you should keep them all in the incubator together in a tub with some moist paper towel until they shed.
