Contract: Bovine Blues is a Contact in The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt. This Contract is a part of the Blood and Wine DLC. Contracts act as Secondary Quests and are optional Quests not required to finish the game. Some of these quests may have a bearing on certain Main Quests or may be a consequence of another Quest.
Bovine Blues can be activated either from Flovive's or Ardaiso Quarry's notice board and taking the Contract: Mysterious Plummeting Cattle or by interacting with one of the quest areas. Completing this quest also begins the Big Feet to Fill series of quests.
Urgently needed: specialist used to the strange and extraordinary. Must be fast and reliable. Sorcerer, druid or witcher preferred. Problem invovlves cattle (sic) falling out of sky at night must be cleared up fast -- work must resume at quarry soon as we're up against tight deadlines. For details, see foreman of Ardaiso quarry.
A witcher's life is never dull. If there ever comes a point when he's had his fill of cockatrices, strigas or nekkers, he can always count on the world throwing something unusual in his Path. As was the case on this occasion, when a bovine crashed to the ground from the sky, landing right on top of a quarry worker! At last, here was a contract that would surely tear the witcher free of the fetters of the quotidian that so often held him!

Contract: Bovine Blues Journal
A witcher's life is never dull. If there ever comes a point when he's had his fill of cockatrices, strigas or nekkers, he can always count on the world throwing something unusual in his Path. As was the case on this occasion, when a bovine crashed to the ground from the sky, landing right on top of a quarry worker! At last, here was a contract that would surely tear the witcher free of the fetters of the quotidian that so often held him!
Upon inspecting the cow's carcass and the worker's corpse, Geralt established that no plague had caused the incident (as the quarry workers had vehemently claimed), nor was it the result of a distorted portal (as Geralt himself had suspected). Instead, the witcher discovered the cause to be relatively banal. A draconid had been carrying the cow back to its nest. Yet the beast had either lost its grip of overestimated its strength, and the cow had landed in the quarry – and in doing so had crushed one of the workers.
The witcher, an expert in all matters monstrous, was quick to divine that the draconid he sought was a slyzard. All signs seemed to suggest it was a relatively young specimen, that had not only lost its quarry but also been heavily wounded as it accidentally destroyed one of the cranes standing in the quarry. The wound meant the witcher could track the beast easily. He found it quickly, following the trail of its blood. Along the way it turned out the young slyzard's mother had come to help it. Unmoved by this evidence of affection between the beasts, admittedly rare among reptiles in general, Geralt reached the monsters' nest and slew them all.
Having slain the two slyzards, Geralt also incinerated the nest full of slyzard eggs. For as the locals proclaim, "Lebioda helps those who help themselves."
With his hunt done, the witcher informed the quarry workers that he had removed the threat – said threat having been no more than a juvenile slyzard. The foreman breathed a sigh of relief, for his crew could get back to its job – erecting a gigantic statue of the Prophet Lebioda.
