Even though I know you did what you thought was best and I would probably panic too in that situation, what you could have done was place him in an area away from your other rats and let him live out his life in peace and away from noisy pet store life. By the way you described the poor guy he probably would not have made it very long due to his conditions. If he isn't that pet store next time you go, odds are he has passed but at least he will be out of what seems like a lot of discomfort.

Awww poor little thing! Dont worry though hopefully the petstore took him. Good job doing that though!
