Unfortunately I don't agree with your vet. Rats can be casted and I've seen many. If the leg is indeed broken he will need to have a check up. Also, most vets would not recommend any exercise during an injury at all. They are supposed to be kept singly until they are healed, with no interaction with other rats, as in play. Sniffing and see eachother is fine, but I would limit his movement as much as possible. The least he could have done was given some antiinflamatories. Giving advice without even seeing the animal is very unprofessional IMHO.
But, yes there is good in my post LOL, I do hope he does recover and does well.Keep us updated on his progress.
