Hi and welcome to BYC 
We're so happy you've decided to join us 
We've got lots of folks in your neck of the woods. So I'm sure someone will be able to get you some birds. What breed are you interested in?

Hi there and welcome to BYC.
Since you live in a rural part of Maryland (I grew up in md) you have a lot of options.
craigslist : use the search option and just use the word chicken.
There’s a tractor supply store in Cumberland.
Go in.
Lots of people who work at TSC are chicken keepers. Ask them if there are any hobby breeders around. They know everyone.
You could ask if they have any they’d like to sell, and there is usually have a bulletin board where people post ads.
My local TSC store has some chicks right now. Not a lot like they do in the spring, during “chick days” but some.
Lots of people buy from hatcheries as well and have them shipped.
