30X30X18 but PLEASE consider going bigger...as big as you can afford. The larger the cage the more room the birds have to manoevre and thus the fitter and healthier they are, and the more their mind is worked thus they tend to be more intelligent. Plus lovebirds, despite their name can be aggressive and the more space they get the less likely they are to fight. Personally I would never consider putting any bird in a cage with a footprint less than 3 foot long by 2 foot wide, even tiny birds like finches.

Do not make the mistake that your lovebird needs a small cage. These little birds are on the go every minute of their day and at the minimum need a standard size cocatiel cage. The bar spacing should be under 3/4", and keep in mind that a mixture of horizontal and vertical bars is best. For a breeding pair, provide at least a 30x30x18 cage. As with any bird, the more room the better.
