when trying droplets of chicken broth on your mice can it be fake chicken broth (like powder mixed with water) or does it have to be real for it to stimulate a feeding response?

I've used regular out of the can campbells - not sure if powdered will work.

I am in south florida and I am yet to see a deer mouse here. If anybody knows where I can find a Jerboa or two let me know asap. I have been wanting to breed those springy little guys for a while now. And it could all but eliminate non-eating balls.
