It doesnt really matter. You could just skip the week all together if you wanted. They will be fine.

what ever works for you. they will be fine. if you have time before you leave on friday feed them. or as late as possible on thursday. otherwise wait till you get back.
i'm wondering more if you have someone coming to check on them? i leave mine over night once in a while but leaving them for 4-5 days i would have someone check on them. you never know if a light will go out or the electricity.

If you want to keep them on regular feeding just do it a day early.
