Why not all? Either get more races or genemod part of the one you have to fill all three roles. Hint - slave market is your friend.

I've only used chattel slaves and livestock slaves. Livestock slaves are extremely efficient when you give them Delicious, Agrarian, Nerve Stapled and Very Strong and they'll make good soldiers too. Plus you can cram them on habitats.

I used both and servants (not battle thralls)
chattel slaves for energy and minerals.
livestock for food. (Agrarian also gives it a bonus of 15%)
servants for amenities and trade. (trade does not get the chattel bonus and servants are less unhappy)
