Different ways you can do it. But seafood stock will give you a lot of flavor due to distinct taste of shellfish . Chicken stock can be kind of bland. They can be mixed as well. There is no one way to make gumbo as long as you do have the roux

Also, that recipe doesn't have any seafood in it. It is just chicken and sausage. That is called ya-ya gumbo

Yeah I think I might do half and half(chicken/seafood stock)
 
After looking up seafood stock, it's not too much involved. Vegetables, herbs, and seafood of choice. I always make shrimp so next time, I'll save the shells. I can get some crab legs to eat and save the shells.

I just tossed out a buncha shrimp tails into my compost too.

I usually dry them out and grind them so they decompose into the compost quicker but couldnt be bothered today
