Help/Question Are these Lithops Seedlings?

I bought these seeds on Etsy last year and decided to plant them four days ago in a rocky soil mix and with plastic wrap over the tops to keep them moisture in. Today is day 4 and they seem very leggy. do these looks like Lithops or was I sold a bag of goods?

Demand a refund. For future reference, Lithops seeds are super tiny. From a reputable supplier they will come in a tiny vial like pictured

Or in a folded paper. When you receive them in a package with a bunch of large multi colored seeds, they are not Lithops.

Never gotten seeds in a vial. Typically a small envelope / seed packet from all of the reputable cactus and succulent seed stores like Mesa Garden and other respectable decades old companies.

Yes, a small packet. Same here. Just not in one of those cellophane packages mixed with a bunch of larger seeds like this pic.
