Do I need to have THAT TALK with Mikey?

When I came home today, I stopped and sat in front of Mikey's tank like I always do. He came up to the side of the glass and started begging of course. So I started playing with him. I pointed my finger at him, against the glass, and he started fluttering at my finger and showing me his 'manly parts'. This is the first time he's done this to me, or anything for that matter. He's just over four inches long, about two to two and a half years old. Is it time to tell him about the turtle stork?
