Can't get specific ducks to show up.

[Alive!]

Is there a way to get specific ducks to show up? I play this game with my 2 year old niece, and she recognizes specific ducks and gets really happy to see them. Yesterday, we discovered a duck that looks like a gaming PC, complete with liquid cooling and rainbow fans spinning around. This became my niece's new favorite duck. The problem is, after we were done with the session, the next time I booted up the same session, the duck didn't show up again. I saved the game, so I don't see why this happened. I resorted to leaving the game running overnight in the hopes that I can get that duck to show up again, but even after an 8 hour wait, I couldn't get the gaming PC duck to show up a second time. isn't there a way to just spawn in specific ducks whenever you want to see them? And if not, devs, why isn't there? I mean, you're allowed to enable and disable DLC packs to have a minor amount of control over which ducks show up anyway, why not just let people hand pick the ones they want to see? I would even take a compromise, like being able to hand pick a certain amount of ducks per session. But the way the game is now, all this limitation does is make people have to play the game in an exploitative fashion to get certain ducks to show up, LIKE KEEPING YOUR GAME ON ALL NIGHT. It's a chill game about plastic ducks. I just don't see the need for rigidness here.

Anyway, does anyone know what specific DLC pack this gaming PC duck is a part of? I want to disable the other packs and isolate it to just the one relating to it in order to give it a higher chance to spawn. It says it's "special" under the collections menu, but that doesn't really help me.

The special ducks are map locked (with the exception of 1) and will not respawn during a reload of the save file, only after their spawn conditions are met once again. That being said
PC duck is dropped by the UFO overtime and is one of the 4 Infinity Cool-only special ducks
And with that out of the way.. I am confused as to why after 8 hours it hasn't respawed. Could it be it respawned but got thrown out of the pool into the ocean by other ducks/lag spikes?

Well, that explains a lot. I didn't know that specific ducks were stage locked. My niece and I did originally see the PC duck when we were playing on Infinity Cool, but I chose Hippospace when I left the game on overnight because that's my nieces favorite stage. I guess I'll have to try again. That information was super helpful to me. Thank you!
