where can I sell my full grown baby canaries?

I live in Michigan and work in the Avian community. I would recommend advertising online at Hoobly.com - a lot of breeders advertise there and many bird people go there to buy as opposed to Craigslist where you may have to deal with problem situations.

There is also a large presence from the Avian community on Facebook - many groups, both for selling birds and for bird lovers.

Unfortunately, in addition to there being a lot of great bird lovers in Michigan, there are a lot of bird flippers, so do be careful who you sell to. Flippers tend to focus on parrots and larger species, but you still want to keep an eye out.

I would generally recommend selling yourself because pet stores will sell to anyone (most of them) since they are in business to sell birds - not to ensure birds get great homes. Selling yourself allows you to have control over where they go.

Best wishes!
