When first put together they had a couple oif scuffles, but all has calmed down. Timmy has groomed Misty and now hes happily chilled out doing nothing. But Misty keeps thumping her feet x
 
It's a way of rabbits communicating displeasure or a warning.

During bonding i'd half expect it, I wouldn't worry too much about it :)
 
Is she neutered, sorry can't remember if she is? Obviously, if she isn't she is demanding being mated with. If she is neutered then it may mean the same thing, I am not sure.
 
In my experience foot thumping means fear or is communicating a possible danger to other rabbits.
 
Yeah she is spayed. She just seems to be thumping for no reason. Even when Timmy is asleep. x
