You should have to enter a pin to unlock the yubikey and if you fail so many times it can be locked forever.

If you are using the PIV applet of the Yubikey, then yes, a PIN is required. Failing the specified number of retries will result in the device being locked. The PIN can be unlocked with a PUK. Failing the specified number of retries with the PUK will brick the PIV applet. You can reset the PIV applet but all previous data will have been wiped.
