You have a baby YCA, which is transitioning from tube feeding to solid food and you believe that during feeding, the tube was lost into the YCA's crop, correct? You have double checked that you had used the tube and it is not in its normal place or around where you had been feeding, correct?
You state that your YCA is eating pellets, since the lost of the tube had occurred, correct?
Is your YCA stretching its neck while opening its beak and possible twisting its head? How often?
Your Vet's office has closed for the Weekend. Do they have an Emergency Contact phone number or do they provide /recommend an Emergency Clinic for Weekend and Night time Emergencies? If they do, please call that number or visit that Emergency Clinic, quickly!
If none of that is available, you have a potential of a very stressful 48+ hours ahead of you. Continue to feed as normal, but be very watchful of any sights of difficulty taking /feeding or eating while your YCA is eating pellets.
If you are unable to contact Emergency Services, plan to be at your Vet's Offices first thing Monday Morning. Commonly, the Vet Techs and support staff are at the Clinic by 7 am Monday morning!
