That's a Quaker Parrot (Also known as the Monk Parrot).
Quakers are usually in the top ten best talking birds.
Quakers are illegal in some states. http://quakerville.net/qic/statelaw.asp has a state by state listing
Quakers are usually between $150 and $300 depending on where you get them from (and Color...quakers come in blue too)

And, as somebody already posted
www.quakerparrots.com is a big help.

I would not worry too much about teaching it to talk just yet, the first think you should focus on is building a trusting relationship between you and the bird, make sure it feels comfortable around you and your family, play with it often, give it treats, that sort of thing. Then when the bird is comfortable enough and it feels like part of the family it will start to mimic the sounds that you make, then it will learn to talk. This goes for allmsot all hand-fed social birds.
