Mister, Fogger or Humidifier?

I have my setup in a small room towards the back of the house and I plan to free range in the future. I also have the feeders in the same room so I was wondering if I should control the humidity with a humidifier for the whole room or a mister or a fogger or some combination of the three? The cage is all mesh so it's open air. Any tips for a setup like this would be much appreciated.
 
Where are you located? Reason for the question is if you're in a cold climate humidifying a whole room to more than 30 or 40% RH during the winter could be a problem (condensation on the windows/exterior walls). Much easier to use a fogger or ultrasonic for a localized area. Mild winter and you should be OK with whole room during the winter.
 
I personally wouldn't attempt to control the entire room if your normal humidity in your house is fine. I recommend using a misting system as it will not only help spike the humidity in the cage during mistings it will also be the water supply for your little one.
 
Since you are going for humidity I would probably go for the fogger. I have a misting system and the humidity only rises for about 30 minutes during the misting session and a lil after. I would go for the fogger, like what was already said it is best for a localized area and not the whole room. I do hope that you do mist enough that he gets plenty to drink tho.
 
I live in west Texas so I'm not overly concerned about temp control but during summer it's usually fairly dry. The room is pretty small so I was thinking a humidifier just for that extra boost and then maybe a mister for the enclosure? I was worried about a fogger because the sides are mesh and I wondered if the fog would mold in the carpet when it got out of the sides or does it not really hurt carpet?
 
I prefer a mister such as the monsoon like what I have it works amazing I'v had it forever and it works and mists perfectly
