Short answer: In Steal An Egg, Rainbow is the best hatch mutation at x3.5 income, but its roll weight is only 1 in 100. Golden gives x2.5 (weight 4) and Silver x1.2 (weight 6). Parasite x3, Fractured x2.75 and Scrambled x2.75 come from special eggs or items. Size is a separate roll that multiplies income again.
Last checked:

Rainbow x3.5 is the top hatch mutation, Golden x2.5 is the common good roll, Silver x1.2 the small one. Multiply by size for the real income.

How size stacks
Final income = base income × mutation multiplier × size multiplier.
Size is a separate roll shown as weight in kg. Up to 125 times the hidden base weight, income grows with (weight ratio)^(37/60). Above that the game applies diminishing returns. The wiki gives these examples: about 17 times base income at 100 times base weight, about 23 times at 200 times and about 45 times at 1000 times.
