Hate to be that guy, but keeping leopard geckos anywhere near sand is risky business. The dumb babies will swallow it, get intestinal impaction, and die very quickly from it. :(
This isn’t a leopard gecko, this is a knob tail. Sand is their ideal substrate. But you are correct that they are dummies.
It's really frustrating how much mis-information there is on the internet about pet lizards. (This doesn't only apply to leopard geckos.) I got a bearded dragon about 6 months ago and man, I'd find directly contradictory information on the #1 and #2 hit when searching for answers for things; it kills me thinking how many people must have hurt or killed their reptiles because they just couldn't find consistent, straight answers they needed.
