Ah OK I see the issue and where the confusion came from.
Dark matter is in fact one particle from the full set of supersymmetric partners. It has to be the lightest one, or in other words the only one that can be stable. Any supersymmetric particle can always decay in a lighter supersymmetric particle, which is thus impossible for the lightest state.
