First, welcome to OCC.......
Three things to check. (A) Is your tractor in Neutral, (B) Are you sitting in the Seat, and (C) is your Foot Pedal depressed. Each of those, have safety switches that need to be satisfied, in order for the engine to roll over.

Since you say it was parked in a shed since fall, it is highly possible that a little critter decided to build a nest under the cooling shroud of the engine. Possibly could have chewed through a couple of wires too.
I would pull the cooling shrouds off the engine and make sure it's clean under there. Even if there's no wires chewed through, you certainly don't want your engine to overheat because of a mouse nest!

Current State after charging new battery overnight
Hello to those that responded. I left my new battery on charge overnight. I went out there this morning and turned the key, I had lights. While sitting on the seat, moving the throttle up and depressing the left pedal I turned the key. It made slight attempts (sounded like the engine moved a tiny bit) at turning the engine over for maybe 4 times each time I repeated the process and then only a clicking noise.

Try cleaning "each" battery cable on "both" ends to make sure they are clean, tight, and bright.

Finally Started !
I put the battery charger back on for a couple hours. I went out and at the advice of the admin, I made sure my battery connections were clean and tight. Low and behold she started right up. I love it when a plan comes together . Thank you everyone for your input !

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
