Default battery trouble

I lived in New Jersey and I forgot to plug in the trickle charger for the whole winter. When I plugged it in two days ago the battery didn't take charge. Do I need A new battery or should I jump the Battery first and then finish charging the battery with the charger, cause the battery is really dead.

You could jump it, although not recommended. Once and if it runs after that, put a voltage meter on it and see if it will charge. However, like above said, it's probably time for a new battery.
