I remember a very old short story/novella about a man on Mars who finds a creature who lays pyramid shaped eggs, the eggs hatch and a new creature lays an egg and so on. Think the man is a stranded astronaut but can really remember what the purpose of being on Mars or anything else the creature does. Had 50's sort of feel to it but not sure.

30s, not 50s. The man is a member of an exploring party on Mars, not stranded. You can read the story at Project Gutenberg.

This is Stanley G Weinbaum's "A Martian Odyssey".
There was a line of little pyramids - tiny ones, not more than six
inches high, stretching across Xanthus as far as I could see.
