I have kept more wild caught pacific gophers than captive bred. In my experience WC tame down extremely fast, if they aren't already tame. I assume that WC and CB gophers have about the same rate of aggressiveness but in my experience I have only come accross one WC that was not tame within a day or so of captivity. On the other had I have had or dealt with multiple CB gophers that stayed aggressive overall.

I believe it is just normal variance and will just depend on the individual snake. Similar to how some dogs are short tempered and others wouldn't do anything no matter what was done to them.
