add a degree
I believe you do add a degree. You also add a degree when taking temperature by armpit.
It is because under your tongue there are salivary glands that "shoot" out saliva
The normal temperature of a tongue is approximately the same as the body temperature, which is around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees Celsius.
You add 1 degree (Fahrenheit) or 1.8 degrees, depending on opinion. The reason for the uncertainty is that underarm measurement of body temperature is not very accurate. Nevertheless, it is a meaninful indication.
if you have 2 balls under your tongue what are they?
On the tongue. Under the tongue could cause alot of irritation, and the horse might behave badly because there is some strange thing under the very sensitive part of their tongue. You should have somebody experienced show you exactly how. ~Bree
