I can't be bothered dissecting all the suffices of that extremely long and highly unlikely word, but I'll take up your challenge:

裏*には二羽鶏があります。

うらにわにはにわにわとりがあります。

Uraniwa ni wa niwa niwatori ga arimasu.

There are two chickens in the back yard.

ni wa : two particles, together indicating "in this place (the thing is happening)"

(ni) wa: (two) birds (wa is the counter)

niwatori: chicken

In writing, definitely...but you'd be able to tell the two meanings apart from context and vocal inflection (obsiously :p).

Not bad at all though.
