What happened to this little guy? DU warning?

I work in a pet store part time, this little guy was breed in the store for a feeder. We clean the tanks everyday and wipe the bottms out and everything, they are kept on aspen bedding well cared for. I was cleaning out the cage today and saw this little guy and picked him up because I thought that he was too cute and that's when I saw his leg. What could this be? The owners told me I had 2 options, either take him home and try to nurse him or put him down. I want to know what it is and it he can heal from it before I go and put him down.

Here is one picture,



As you can see he isn't to inhibtaed (Spelling?)by it.



Hope ya'll can help me help this little guy.

Looks like someone else in the cage did an amputation on the little guy. If you can keep it from getting infected, he so do OK. I had a mama mouse that would eat the tails and sometimes the back legs off of her babies. Really didn't slow the babies down very much at all. Rodents are just wierd sometimes.

Thats what I was thinking, he was the smallest in the tank, I have H2O2ed it and put some neosprine on it and he seems to be doing ok so far. I'm just hoping he will be ok from mom now as I'm not sure he was off her just yet. But he does seem to check out the labrock that I brought home as well. My daughter has fallen in love with the cute little guy. I also brought home a very dilute cream and a berkshire cream as well male and female Juvies. So we shall see. The male is so light he looks silverish.
